[quote=Anonymous]When I hear "t50", I don't even really think of specific schools so much as a general way of describing schools that are excellent schools and highly competitive but not the tippy-top. Honestly the difference between a #45 ranking and #55 is completely irrelevant. One isn't "better" than the other, except to be a better fit for a particular kid (and the #55 could just as easily be the better fit for any given kid. Basically I'm not trying to distinguish around the edges ... it's more like "not top ten, but also not the 150th". So, yeah, I'd think of a school that was ranked #53 in some recent assessment the same way I'd think of the school that came in #49.[/quote]
