Might as well save your money.[/quote]

You can say this, but to those of us who follow college acceptances in NWDC it really does seem that ED from public is better than RD from private for an unhooked high stats kid. And for many families the &gt;$200k they save by staying in public is the difference between ED and RD. [/quote]

Well yes, ED is a significant advantage.  But ED vs ED or RD vs RD would be the only way to compare.

The person you replied to is just speaking out of their a**. They only have rumor and anecdata to back up their statement.[/quote]

Look, I went to a Big3 and my kids are now at Jackson Reed. This is a real trend. The numbers have significantly changed over the past 10 years. Top colleges don't want overly privileged kids (unless they are so privileged that they can help the college lol). [/quote]

Please provide us data to back up this claim.[/quote]
