[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Brearley only has 13 kids who've posted so far, but it's pretty remarkable already.[/quote]
Out kid chose HM over B (and a couple of other excellent high school options), and we are not hypsm-or-bust, but still makes you wonder if B would have been a safer bet in terms of matriculations.[/quote]

Are you implying HM is unsafe in comparison or something? ED at Cornell, and boom: DCs get in automatically, and parents can brag their kid is going to “an Ivy.” This is what 16 kids already did this year.[/quote]
you are right, I am not *really* concerned, just musing tbh.  I actually think Cornell is pretty great, especially for  what our kid wants to do, and ~45 out 107 at Ivy+Chicago is excellent.  Just curious what's going on with hypsm vs Brearley -- I am sure there are parents for whom those specifically are a meaningful metric of the school's reputation.[/quote]

A Brearley parent once told me that the HYP admits are mostly big donor legacies and first gen students. I’m not sure if it’s true though because HM would have students with similar profiles.[/quote]
