[quote=Anonymous]Actually, it's not out-of-state private school students raising the NMSF cut-off for DC. ETS made a policy decision to tie DC's cut-off to the highest state cut-off. RE CTY and private schools. BTDT in ES and DC said that neither the curriculum nor the cohort was as interesting as regular school. And was kinda pissed off that the university library collection was off-limits to the CTY'ers (except for assigned texts). In general, I think that, for a variety of reasons, public school parents are more likely to seek out certain kinds of academic enrichment programs than private school parents. Bottom line: I think that there are great educations to be had and excellent students to be found in both public and private schools. And I'm a little baffled as to why someone would see other peoples' kids' PSAT scores as a source of bragging rights.[/quote]
