我孩子申请的学校

根大家讨论一下

Harvard (just want to try our luck, less than 5% chance)
Stanford (her best friend applys there so apply for fun)
Duke (nominated for a full ride scholarship)
Cornell (her #1 school, but we know we will not be able to afford it. Everytime we talk about this, I felt very bad for failing to be a good parent. We lost at least $150,000 in 2000 stock market crash because we used too much margins. Still paying for that mistake).
WashU at St Louis (one of the hottest school for second tier students, hoping to get some merit aid)
Vanderbilt (decent chance, may get aid.)
Tufts (chance)
State U (honor program is not bad, may get top scholarship).
