[quote=Anonymous]DH and I are battling over whether to keep our son at a Big 3. He is in 9th grade, and as far as we can tell, is in the bottom half of his class. Bright kid. Good extracurriculars, but nothing to really make him stand out. I'm of the mind that paying 30K + per year is an investment of sorts, and can't really be measured by college placement. My DH is much more data driven, and thinks that if our son isn't going to end up at a top university by virtue of his bottom half status, we might as well just go public. We are in the BCC school district. I still think that even bottom half kids at Big 3 schools end up at name brand colleges. But apart from thinking that, have nothing to back it up. So, if your kid was at a Big 3 and was not an academic standout, but in the bottom half, where did he/she end up going to college? [/quote]
