[quote=Anonymous]CPGS is largely perceived as for very rich kids that aren't super-sharp. You can't really buy your way into the elite NYC schools (Trinity, Dalton, Collegiate, Brearley, Spence, Horace Mann, etc.) because there are way too many rich NYC parents and they can pick the smartest of the lot. Nonetheless, CPGS has great college outcomes. Students there still end up in the same colleges as the more elite prep schools, and they are less stressed in high school. I'd argue this is an advantage, because they keep their GPA higher and have more time to pursue extracurriculars and activities. The resume-building is what gets one into a top college nowadays, not GPA/scors.[/quote]
