Really?

NP - yes, really. It doesn't look that different at all.

Post the acceptances of the "W" school. BS otherwise.

None of this is official and you probably won't believe me, but (about) 4 kids are going to Princeton, 3 to Stanford, 1 to Yale, 6 to Cornell, 5 to Duke, 2 to Brown, 1 to Caltech, 1 to Columbia, 4 to UChicago, 8 to Vandy, 4 to Wash U, 4 to Penn, 5 to Berkeley, 5 to Hopkins...

I expected way better from TJ considering they're a magnet school and have a bigger class. I have no idea where his classmates got in, just where they're going.

Money plays a major role for many TJ grads and some choose UVA/W&M over Ivy schools but typically the TJ grads attend as follows based on past several years:

About 90 attend UVA, about 60 attend W&M, about 40 attend VaTech, about 45 attend Cornell, about 43 attend Michigan, about 28 attend CMU, about 15 attend Princeton, about 14 attend MIT, about 7 attend UC Berkeley, about 9 attend Stanford, about 17 attend Duke, about 7 attend Yale, about 8 attend Brown, about 8 attend Dartmouth, about 6 attend Columbia, about 7 attend Penn, about 7 attend Chicago, about 6 attend Hopkins, about 10 attend Georgetown, about 4 attend Caltech, about 5 attend Northwestern, about 14 attend Vanderbilt, about 6 attend Harvard and the rest to other schools and service academies etc. so two schools do not look similar.

That's nice but that's not what this data says.
