<p>Yes, there are more on cc than in the average world. Birds of a feather flock together. There are FAR more future college students than those on cc. Even on cc, when lists are made for the Class of ____, there are more non-Ivy than Ivy.</p>
<p>Students should select their schools based upon their abilities, fit, finances, and goals. My middle son had stats that would have put him in the top 25% pretty much anywhere, but chose not to even consider Ivy schools. He’s quite happy where he is now, and I’ve no doubt he’ll be successful in life with what he wants to do. He has peers in college with him who were accepted to Ivies and turned them down and they weren’t all due to finances.</p>
