[quote=Anonymous]They told us they do not like to take kids from comparable top privates - the educational experience is pretty similar, and whatever is making the child want to change is unlikely to be remedied by a move to Sidwell. And, as noted, they have an overabundance of other qualified candidates. We watched them turn down amazing candidates in that situation - kids they acknowledged would have been in the top quartile or better at Sidwell had they been admitted. So it's a long, long shot: 4.0, 800 SSATs, and strong extracurriculars are not a guarantee.[/quote]
