How can I convince my parents that I just CAN'T go to an ivy?

<p>i’ve asked my mom if she’d be willing to talk to my counselor, but she thinks that my counselor’s an idiot, so she was absolutely unwilling. / =
good suggestion though!</p>

<p>&i’ve been thinking about that, i have no qualms when it comes to wasting my parents money, so i might do that. and butcher the interview as well. hah.</p>
