[quote=Anonymous]Yeah this post is weird. Admissions for private schools is way better than public schools the last few years. The top privates have been getting 40-50% into Top 25 and the next tier of privates are often approaching 25%. No non-magnate public comes even close to this. But yeah if your kid is going to bottom half of the class at Sidwell they aren’t going to be to going to the top colleges. But that bottom half of the Sidwell class wouldn’t be near the top at a public or even somewhere like Bullis (where the top layer is very strong too). The problem is parents in the bottom half of the class at Sidwell or GDS way overrate the strength of their kid because of the school association. [/quote]
