[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]same slices from each. Top 10% similar set of Ivies, top 10-25% similar set of competitive colleges, middle section same again, bottom of privates still go to college but bottom of publics might not go to a 4 yr. No college acceptance advantage from top public HS versus top private HS. There are other advantages to privates, and some only to publics. Best thing would be to move to N Dakota or something. [/quote] Big 3 have more like 20-25% going to Ivies+ and the entire top half of every class goes to one of most selective colleges on Barron's list. But that's because of the completely different financial profile of their students. Very few Big 3 families will turn down a top tier school to go to UMD or UVA but that is a common decision for many families at public schools. [/quote]
