[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I've taught at both schools and have friends who still teach there, a few who have also jumped between schools. Academics at both schools are on par with each other. They're essentially the same kind of school, except the differences people have already mentioned (e.g., coed v. single sex, Quaker v. Episcopalian). Students are mostly from upper-middle/wealthy families who live in upper NW, Bethesda/CC, Potomac, McLean, Arlington/Alexandria. Tons of parents from big law, doctors, lobbyists, business owners/CEOS/CFOs, and some high-level feds and academics. Throw in a politico or two and there you have it. Some racial diversity in each school, though not much socioeconomic diversity.[/quote] There you have it! If you are thinking about next year, consider applying to both. Both are hard to get into, so you may find that your choice will be made for you.[/quote]
