Really fantastic! All of that money spent has finally paid off. You must be getting excited to pay for the big Ivy bill next.

Envy and resentment are very unattractive.

Our school released 2018-2020 stats for % acceptance to a variety of school (ivys/Stanford etc) compared to general admission rates for schools.
I found that level of detail very helpful. They also told us what % of students were accepted for ED (above 90%).

You should ask your school for this level of detail. It gives you a good indication of where your school spikes or falls short or is about even.

I was hugely impressed with our a school in many cases (acceptance rate 3-4x general population at some s schools) and surprised by the 2 colleges where our private didn’t have as much of an advantage (acceptance rate equivalent to overall acceptance rate)…

And the smarter person - going to an ivy is no guarantee of any major career outcome …

Nope. There are "bottom 75%" who applied to non-Ivy, first choice schools and are getting in ED. They may not be schools that some consider "elite" (I am referring to the long thread in the College forum here) but they are those students first choices. Schools like Carnegie, Case-Western, Pitzer, etc.

Okay, but was spending money at Big3 helping them get in at the low tier schools or would they still have gotten in coming from a public?

So you think it would be easy to get into one of these schools being in the "bottom" of the class from a public school?

Presumably the Bottom 75% of private kids would be top a 25% at public due to their stronger abilities. But since they are grouped with other like students at a private school they just don’t stand out thus worsen their college admission changes.

Lol. Hard no.
