[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Correlation =/= causation. There are a lot of reasons private school kids get accepted at higher rates that likely have to do with demographics, including legacy and athlete status, access to test prep and tutors, knowledge about the college process and ED, etc. [/quote] This is true. But in addition, there is a freedom of exploration afforded in private schools that can not be matched in public education. This lends itself to creative thought, wordly perspective, deep exploration and many other features that top universities value and pursue. While of course, there are exceptions. As a general rule a private school education more directly correlates to the intwllextual exploration at top universities. Sure, there are smart kids in public schools….and they can earn great stats. But public schools have boundaries on what they can offer and allow. [/quote]
