[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The same unhooked kid. They may get in what, Georgetown Cornell perhaps Duke or Williams, in private schools. Would they get in HYP if done in public? Why, or why not?[/quote] Public always has better stats [/quote] This take gets repeated so often on here, and ... it just doesn't hold up. Case in point: about 10% of students in the US go to private school, but 40% of Yale undergrads come from private high schools. The Harvard Crimson had an article last year about how just 20-ish high schools (again, most of them private and highly selective) sent more than 2,000 kids to Harvard in the last 15 years.
