<p>I think it’s perfectly healthy to have goals and schools you want to attend. It’s when parents condition their children that this [school] is the only way they’ll succeed or this [school] will be the deciding factor of whether they live or die.</p>
<p>The college admissions process is awful. School is no longer about learning, but doing stupid and unproductive activities to please parents and college counselors. </p>
<p>Thankfully admissions officers are becoming aware and no longer set priority for students with absurd e.c and steroid GPA.</p>
