[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Really? Is that what this thread is about? It sure doesn't seem to be developing that way. [/quote] Another PP here. I think there are two parallel tracks in this thread. There is the private/public thing which I read the OP to be taking a dig at public schools while boosting privates. People tried to dispel the OP's point by providing and discussing numbers. The other track is the "obsession with HYP" on which I was commenting. I have the kid at Mich who is a big 3 alum and I was pointing out what you were saying - that there are excellent schools outside of the Ivies (and the supposed "1st Tier"). The numbers will not support most of these kids going to Ivies so I thought the obsession was misplaced. So for the record, I fully support the private school choice but I did not choose private school for my kids because I saw it as a gateway to HYP. [/quote]
