[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]WF is very southern and sends almost no one to Ivies. It's also nowhere close to be an academic peer of the other schools mentioned. [/quote] They send no one to Ivies, because few kids are that interested and few apply. They are southern boys that are more excited to go to flagship SEC schools (Alabama, UGA, Ole Miss, etc.) or well-regarded southern schools (Sewanee, Charleston, etc.) The really smart ones tend to aim for UVA, UNC, Vanderbilt, or Duke. In fact, I'd reckon that a boy that wants the Ivies might have a better shot out of WF, because they will have little competition for the seat. Maybe 4 kids might apply to Harvard, whereas in the top New England schools, probably a quarter of the class applies for 5 seats. [/quote]
