[quote=Anonymous]If your child was accepted at an elite college, I’d be interested in your honest opinion as to whether your child would have been accepted at that school if they had attended a private school other than the one they attended? If not, what was it about the private school they attended that made a difference and is unique to their school (i.e., not available at other area private schools)? I ask because I think that most children accepted at an elite college could have made it into that same college from any of the top private high schools in this area. I say this because most students that get into elite colleges get in either because they are smart and a good student and/or because they have some hook (legacy, diversity, athletics) separate from the high school they attended. Please identify the school and use whatever definition of "elite" you'd like. [/quote]
