[quote=Anonymous]Thanks -- I'd never heard these acronyms before and I like them. Are you sure "M" is Middlesex rather than Milton, though? [quote=Anonymous]there are a bunch of different sources so ranking top schools is very arbitrary. Don't go by one list or some random Wall St Journal ranking. each school has a different feel and fit (some are 100% boarding, some much less, some have over 1,000 students, some much less, some have been around for 300 years, some a little less, etc). The top schools are usually called HADES or GLADCHEMS, not in any order just acronyms. There is also something called the 10 School Association, but that is nothing more than a band of boarding schools that travels together to help market the schools (but includes many of the top schools).
