[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would wager that 9 out of every 10 students from the elite private schools that are admitted to HYPSM would have been admitted even if they attended a top public school. In other words, it’s the student (and the hooks they have) not the school. The main reason well to do parents send their children to private school is to put them in an environment where their peers are socially adept and well connected. Another benefit is the small class size and personal attention. But long time private school families know that the schools themselves are not responsible for admission to elite colleges – those admissions are destined (or not) before the DC enters high school.[/quote] Ask a silly question, get a . . . .
