[quote=Anonymous]Private is not about going to a top college nor guaranteed success in life post college. You go to private because of the fit for your kid. Whether it's smaller class size, better environment, structured learning, etc. You go because the public option sucks. Why would anyone in their right minds WANT to spend $$$$ otherwise? If they did feel it helped them with entry into a top school, they are idiots. If you are legacy, you can go anywhere. Short of that, being at top of class in public is prob better odds than bottom/mid of a top private. We send our 2 kids because of learning disabilities and because our public sucks. That's enough reasons. Those who are seriously focused on getting into top colleges from public will find out soon enough for many reasons, their kid who "fails" them, will continue throughout their life because their expectations are silly.[/quote]
