[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The two "top" local private schools are sending a lot of kids to Chicago these days when 20 years ago it'd have been one or two every other year. I do agree that Chicago is deliberately going after the bright affluent kids who don't make cut at Penn or Brown or Yale. [/quote] FWIW, know a kid who attended school with my DCs and is bright, quirky, super hardworking, and affluent. Wanted his dad's Ivy, but he decided that was too much of a long shot based on the other DCs applying in their class, three who were also legacy, so bet on Chicago. REJECTED ED. I still can't figure out how that happened. This is a kid who would thrive at Caltech, Chicago, MIT, etc. Ended up in RD at his dad's Ivy. Still think Chicago made a mistake. [/quote]
