[quote=Anonymous]You guys, on the private school board the parents are all complaining that their kids would get into better colleges if they went to public school because of *their* inflated grading. The truth is that it’s just much harder to get into elite colleges than it used to be. Legacies and sports recruits are over represented at private schools, so it looks like they’re doing better. Also, plenty of great students in public schools aren’t even interested or applying to elite privates because (like us) they know they can’t afford it. My kid luckily is in love with UMD. We’ve been saving since she was born and have enough to pay for it but not enough to pay for an elite private, and we have enough income that we wouldn’t get aid. That’s why.[/quote]
