[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Also, do not rely on the reputation of a school without further investigation. We found [u]a few[/u] schools which have great reputations to be average at best, both in terms of academics and the level of student admitted.[/quote] +++1. Exactly our experience. [/quote] The reference to finding "a few" schools confuses me. Did your child actually attend multiple private schools, with you discovering repeatedly that each school's great reputation was not deserved? Or maybe you had that sort of bad experience at one school, and you're extrapolating it to assume "a few" schools are similarly situated? Or maybe you are just saying you decided based on school tours that several schools do not deserve their reputations? More explanation please.[/quote]
