[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Who knows, but if you measure "big 3 or 5" or whatever simply by the average percentage of National Merit Semifinalists or Presidential Scholars over a 3-5 year period, the big 4 are Sidwell, GDS, NCS and STA in the region, with Maret only a bit lower. These are all fantastic high schools academically that will be a different fit in terms of style, politics/values and extracurriculars, but really academically they are all equivalent and have similar college matriculation profiles, having had kids and step kids at three of these schools. [/quote] What a contradiction that so soon after posting that GDS is a good school for those who are" intrinsically, not primarily extrinsically motivated, you rush to boost the school's rep by listing their matric stats at "top univ" and number of National Merit Scholars. Correction , the privates ARE all the same , including the culture. The rest is just the clothes, hardly a " defining" characteristic[/quote]
