[quote=Anonymous]I have a kid that attended a top 10 New England boarding school and another that attended a local public. When you disaggregate the matriculation data, there's really no difference. Private schools have far more recruited athletes, legacies, donor children, and high-achieving URMs/FGLI applicants. If your kid is unhooked, it's a mistake to assume the private school will help their admission chances. They'll still need to rank in the top decile of the class, which is harder at the elite private school. [/quote]
