[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So in terms of the interviews and applications (to a non-Big 3), how would I spin this? "My kid is completely average and is going to require some handholding and may be a bit slow, but is really sweet, so he would be a great addition to this school that you're trying to sell as academically rigorous?" What's the edu-speak on this... [b] do I need to lead with my wallet here?[/quote] [/b] If you can, yes. From the way you describe DC, it seems that is what you are bringing to the table. Your money, your profile, and mention that you are attracted to smaller classes. They will put you in the pile with all of the other wealthy people demanding 1:1 special attention for snow flake. Likely you will beat out a LMC family with a really smart kid , don't worry. [/quote]
