[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Neither a top 20% kid in an elite private nor a top 5% in a solid public is headed to the Ivies, but you're likely to get a better college placement from the private where you'll get better college counseling, and more help "packaging" your kid to be what they want.[/quote] DC has been told that even assuming DC continues to excel at sports through HS, has great HS grades and test scores, and even being a legacy at two different Ivies, that the Ivy admission odds are going to be tough, and that there are lots of great colleges out there. Both of DC's parents are public HS products and we are simply trying to figure out whether the selective private HS option that is available to DC is generally viewed as likely to increase the odds of DC achieving DC's college goals. And yes, we know what private HS and college will cost.[/quote]
