[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]We live in a New England town with a fancy boarding school. DC did not get in even with 99th percentile SSAT scores and a very strong resume.[/b] They admitted classes who were ALC (legacy at Harvard but terrible at school). Fine. All of them went to schools that I will not mention. DC was admitted to Harvard. I say this because you should figure out what you want DC to get from boarding school. If it’s an elite college, it’s not a guarantee. If it’s connections, maybe? Other kids I know who attended the boarding school have not kept up with old friends and their parents said it was a waste of money. [/quote] Are you willing to name the boarding school ?[/quote]
