[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The fact that it’s easier doesn’t mean they don’t have smart kids or great families. We need to walk away from equating intelligence and ability to get admission into a school at kindergarten of all stages.

[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Thoughts on PS6 vs. Allen Stevenson? [/quote]

PS6. At least if you go to PS6 no one will rightfully assume you couldn’t get into Buckley St B St D and a bunch of other schools. Take the tuition and invest it in a custodial at that point. [/quote]

Is that really the view on AS?? I actually preferred it to Buckley and St B, both of which came across as too intense and not very diverse. AS felt more welcoming and warmer[/quote]

Way easier to get into. [/quote]

No it’s not. I know several great families there with really smart kids, and people seem really happy. You should go with the school that feels right. Almost all of the schools do near-identical curricula so it’s about which school culture feels right to you. [/quote][/quote]

Their exmissions are way weaker than the other boys schools. Look up the thread here on AS, the admissions director’s son goes to Dalton apparently. It lacks the network and reputation of the other schools, fair or unfair. And that’s a lot of what you pay for. [/quote]
