Text introduction:In the essay the author offers his advice to those parents who have college-bound children. He first criticizes those parents who boast of having got their children into select universities. He points out that a good university does not necessarily guarantee a successful career. This is supported by the example of his high school friends. Then he tells those disillusioned parents whose children are unlikely to enter prestigious universities that many people achieve huge success in this society without a degree from a prestigious university. This is supported by his own experience. Finally he reminds those parents that “... life doesn’t have just one act. There is often Act Two. And Act Five.” 2.
