If you are looking for a great private school option for an academically motivated kid, BIM should be on your short list.

Then why dont the Basis kids make a statistical dent on Ivy matriculations like the other schools in the area? I know that is not the only measure of success but it is notable that the other schools do show up to some extent and Basis does not.

50% of BIM seniors go to a Top 25 university. And that is with few athletic recruits and legacies. Those are impressive results.

Most Ivy admissions at the Big 3 consists of athletic recruits and legacies.

Without the college matriculation list, these stats cannot be verified, are easily manipulated, and highly suspicious.

I would just ignore these stats.

The Big 3 don't publish official annual matriculation lists either.

So, the numbers about Big 3 matriculations cannot be verified, are easily manipulated, and highly suspicious.

Accordingly, let's just ignore your comment.

Matriculation are published by these schools. You are a troll.

It's better according to test scores

Here’s what Sidwell puts on its website. Lots of big name schools, but also lots of no names. If BASIS isn’t lying about 89 percent of its grad going to at least a top 50, that would compare very well with Sidwell.

Some schools publish it in a magazine sent only to those who are part of the community. Just because you don't receive it, doesn't mean it's unavailable.

Ok so which is it? Is it that I’m a Neanderthal who can’t use the internet or is it that the schools don’t put the info on the internet?

Because that would invalidate the statistics they use for marketing.

Of course BASIS McLean is lying, otherwise they would just publish their matriculation list like everyone else does.

A more appropriate question is, is Basis even as good as Arlington public school pyramids? Jury still out...
