[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How do you have "soft offers?" Are you special? I wouldn't move out of Manhattan for Packer. I would have applied to Friends and Grace.[/quote]

I don’t know much about the lower schools at any of these places but we have applied to Packer, Friends and Grace for 9th and I will say that Packer HS more closely resembles a TT school in terms of the opportunities available to students. Not sure I would necessarily move for Packer though. [/quote]

Interesting. Same schools for us and we felt that way about Grace. There are some kids there who kind of float through but if your kid wants a rigorous, TT-type education they seem to provide it really well. The HoS is really thoughtful and is constantly looking to improve and evolve. And it is a more chill environment. Your kid needs to be self-motivated to take advantage of these things but if they do, it is an elite education. But if they fade in with the others, it is admittedly not as stellar.[/quote]
