[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Did the counselors suggest the UK for you?[/quote]

Yes, exactly.  Pull some B minuses in tough classes at one of the most competitive, demanding private schools in the United States and you are banished to go abroad indefinitely.  In all seriousness, I'm starting to think that the PP with the daughter who didn't get into any good schools may be a troll.  But it's been nice to see how quick some are to assume the worst about an average student at a place like NCS -- hey, if it weren't for us, how could your higher achievers shine so bright?  They can't give A's to everyone![/quote]

Yep, exactly, I think she is a troll.  I questioned earlier why she felt the need to post and she became very defensive.  I am keeping my daughter's acceptance to the class of 2020 despite attending the qoute "no frills" reception and the PP with the daughter who didn't get into any good schools.[/quote]

I think you are talking past each other.  The PP was simply saying that her daughter got mainly Bs at NCS and, presumably as a result, didn't get into what the parent considers good schools.  How does that make her a troll?  I am having a similar experience with a child at a similar school.  It doesn't mean the schools are bad.  But it does understandably make you question whether the school was worth the money for your particular child.  And I think that it is worth knowing, as a prospective parent of a kid at a big 3 or similar school, that if your child is an average student at that school, your child may not get into the colleges that you were hoping he or she would get into.[/quote]
