[quote=Anonymous]I don't understand how a school with such a small graduating class size (like at a Sidwell or GDS) can send such large numbers of kids to the same top schools. Rumor has it a few years ago that 10 Sidwell kids got into Yale. This year, we heard a similar amount got into Penn and 8-10 into Northwestern (both ED). Similar outcomes rumored at GDS. it's not the getting into good schools that I question, it's the seemingly large numbers getting into the same one or two schools. That doesn't seem possible percentage-wise....or do private school admissions people really have that strong of connections with schools of that caliber? We're considering Sidwell for HS and I don't know if the rumor mill here is working overtime?[/quote]
