[quote=Anonymous]First, the comment about one-third of the class at Sidwell going to Ivies included not only the Ivies but what some would consider the Ivy equivalents, such as Duke, Stanford, Little Three, etc. Second, maybe, there are more parents at STA and Sidwell who themselves wents to these schools. If so, then no doubt they may want the same for their children. The foregoing, however, does NOT mean that their children will be admitted at these schools. Many of these parents may be donating some money to these schools, perhaps a few thousand a year. Donations at that level do not carry any real weight at these schools. As such, the college admission record at STA and Sidwell reflects more the rigorous and highly demanding curriculm at these schools, combined with the highly capable student bodies. Finally, this does NOT make GP a bad school. But for an extremely bright and motivated kid with an interest in sports, STA or Sidwell may be a better fit. [/quote]
