A great by Malcom Gladwell article that should reduce every parent's blood pressure over where your child is admitted to college via Kottke.
Bottom Line: Getting into a selective school is not going to change anyone's life. People achieve based on thier intelligence, drive, and social skills, and being accepted or rejected by an elite school will not change your life for better or worse.
Points of interest from a first generation American and son of Swiss immigrants.
