[quote=Anonymous]Problem is, BASIS' critics here aren't wrong. There's too much of a disconnect between the way the school bills itself and the way it works to silence critics. As a BASIS parent, it took me several years to get to grips with the reality that much of the spiel about BASIS knocking it out of the park on APs and elite college admissions is a combo of hubris and wistful thinking. Like it or not, those aiming high in admissions should take the sales pitch with a pinch of salt. I went to a Sidwell open house recently and didn't get the impression that their admins were guilty of false advertising. BASIS is really pushing it.[/quote]
