[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For most/all local public HSs and privates, [b]the Ivy and t25 college admissions are driven by legacy status, musical/athletic hooks, and non-academic factors. [/b] Both Langley HS and FH will be fine academically. For a student with no hooks, t20 and Ivy admissions will be a dice roll in both cases. [/quote] Disagree. It's just that there are a lot of kids as academically accomplished as the typical somewhat above-average Langley kid. The parents only want their kids to be around other high-performing kids from wealthy families, and then they are surprised when it turns out there's a lot of competition. [/quote]
