Awkward Parental Advice

<p>I thought those in this forum might be interested in seeing this post:</p>

<p>“My son is neither introverted nor nerdy and he just graduated from UChicago last June. A couple of people have said he looks like Ben Affleck. He loved the University and he loved Chicago. He received a BS in mathematics with a concentration in Stats (with many econ classes too!). He had 4 job offers six months before he graduated and took a position at a hedge fund making well over six figures and he lives in NYC with two former UChicago grads who are also doing very well. They have a very active social life on the week-ends in the city. How is that for social skills and use of your academics? Oh…and he got into Vanderbilt too but chose Chicago. However, I think Vanderbilt is an excellent school too! I do believe that UChicago has a more world-renowned reputation, esp. in economics (my son had the author of “Freakonomics” as a professor) and the sciences.”</p>
