[quote=Anonymous]Madeira is an excellent school but is not a good fit for everybody. Really explore the mod system, including its effect on extra curriculars done through the school. Also note that it will be difficult for your daughter to participate in any non-school extra curriculars.

NCS is an excellent school but is not a good fit for everybody. It can be a real pressure cooker grind, and takes a certain amount of ability to thrive on stress and an internal fortitude to withstand potential negative impacts to mental health.

Both schools have some unique pros and cons and significant differences between them. Certainly there are girls who would flourish and succeed in both, but many have a strong preference for one over the other, or find that neither is a good fit.

And as others pointed out, all that is assuming you have a choice - a big “if” as both are very competitive acceptances. Do find other schools to apply to as backups unless you are happy with your local public if neither works out. [/quote]
