[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As an aside, many of the peers come from well-off families, are good looking and quite good at sports. Also, many have behavioural problems (habitual liars, cheaters), addictions, and family issues. Do you want your kid to be roommates with someone like this?[/quote] What I am trying to say is that the student body does not reflect the real-world. Their friends, university classmates, coworkers, superiors, etc. will come from a more normal background.[/quote] It depends on the school but some of the prestigious ones are more diverse than the "base" schools that many of these kids would otherwise attend. Exeter has far more economic diversity (thanks to a large number of scholarships) and racial diversity than Langley High, Palo Alto High, etc. [/quote]
