[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Does it matter? if your DC is top 10% at CSH or Marymount, vs. top 70% at Brearley?  TTs like Brearley is impossible to get into.  You probably have a pretty good idea whether the kid is going to perform well at either tier of schools by the age of 10 or 12.  [/quote]
Half or more of the ivy admits at these schools are hooked.  10% CSH or Marymount doesn't mean top 10% all go to an ivy.  Probably means only 3 or 5 unhooked kids from CSH or Marymount are accepted into ivies each year.[/quote]

are you saying more than half of us with kids at a TT are hooked?

don't think so.[/quote]
Definitely not.

But half of ivy admits at the TT are hooked: donor, legacy, low income, first gen, athlete, connection, faculty. [/quote]

So, say Dalton has 30 kids going to the Ivy this year.  15 are hooked and 15 are not.
How many of the hooked 15 are legacy?  versus FGLI?  versus donor?

Legacy/donor helps for one (or two) school, not broadly like FGLI[/quote]
