[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As the above poster says, these two schools appeal to very different groups.

I've never heard of a family with boys at both of them or one anyone who had transferred from one to the other. So no one is going to be able to give you valid comparisons.

We have a lot of boys from our neighborhood at both schools. My sense is that they are about the same academically. I know the overall quality of the college matriculation list is pretty similar. Of course, lots of Prep boys go on to Catholic colleges, especially Jesuit schools.

The big difference between the two schools in who sends their boys to each. You may want to make an effort to understand this before you apply to both.

Prep gets a large group each year from Mater Dei School (30 boys) and from the local parish schools.[/quote]

If you have a lot of boys in your neighborhood at both schools, then they don’t appeal to “very different” groups.

This is silly OP. The schools are more alike than they are different. [/quote]

Talk about missing the obvious.

The Catholic families in the neighborhood send their sons to Prep or Gonzaga or St Johns and never to Landon or any secular private you can name.

The families that send their sons to Landon are almost always not Catholic.
