[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Bullis considers full pay the most. Not a very academic place.[/quote]

Same old, tired trope from the Bullis haters.  Ignore it.  As the parent of a Bullis graduate and a current student, Bullis provides an excellent education, the students there are happy, and you should definitely apply, but as others have said, you should also cast a wide net.  Bullis had the most applicants last year in its history and the lowest acceptance rate.  Being full pay definitely helps; that's just the reality of all private schools.  During the admissions process, if you make it clear that Bullis is your child's first choice, that will help.     [/quote]

Bullis literally is less academic than many private schools in the area. The HOS wants that: “Not a hothouse,” he’s said. Look at their reported SAT scores—mediocre. Look at how many students graduate with honors—most. Yeah, some students there probably are academic, but overall, it’s not a very academic place compared to other schools. The tuition is very high though, as are admin salaries.[/quote]
