[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't think most people send their kids to selective private in hopes of securing admission to elite colleges. They send them seeking a better education than they would have received in public school and hope that education will prepare them to succeed at whatever college they attend. [/quote] Ok, so, my kid is at a HYP. She went to a middle of the road public school. Her current roommate went to a top 5 BS. DD has been tutoring her in both Calculus and Chem…she is NOT prepared for the scions whatsoever. Anecdotal, yes, but don't think that private HSs are good at everything, bc they are not necessarily better than your local public[/quote]
