<p>Don’t dispute the points made, but wow, somebody still sounds a little bitter and resentful after all these years. What’s the matter, got rejected by all HYPSM and the like? Just let it go, man. Connected, rich, pampered kids need a little love too:-)</p>
<p>FWIW, I showed my daughter the post and it got her even way more gung-ho for Cal. I guess she didn’t get where she is by evading challenges. Totally agree about rigorousness of pre-med education paying off later, at med school. So, thank you.</p>
