<p>I agree with momreads…when D1 was applying to colleges she was looking for the right fit and got into her #1 “right fit school.” She thought her friends would be happy for her…but, their comments proved otherwise. She often came home from school in tears, as others with the same class rank(comparable test scores,etc) who were off to ivies, top LACs or CC’s top universities, because of what they said to her. Often she heard, “Is that it? That’s the best you can do?” These kids didn’t understand; she WANTED to go there. She went to a school that was totally her choice, was happy there and that’s all that counted to us…she got a GREAT education and has blossomed into quite the young woman. H and I are very proud of her.</p>
