[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Academically, there is a wide gap between Bullis/SAES and GC. Not even close.

Athletically, there's a wide gap between Bullis/GC and SAES. Not even close.

I'm not sure why you think your son won't get in at Prep but will at Bullis. Prep takes about 125 boys into ninth grade  Bullis will take about 30. Bullis is way more competitive than Prep these days (and the other schools). Prep actually might be your best option. Offers what you want. Way cheaper than Bullis. [/quote]

price point and complete disregard for giving aid makes Bullis inaccessible to so many. It creates the illusion of selectiveness when actually they price themselves into an exclusive echelon not based on the merit of the student. It's not that they take 30. The take the 30 who can pay (and a small subset of those get material aid, very small). [/quote]

I have heard from a current, wealthy Bullis parent that some of the parents are billionaires, so it does give the impression that they give preference to families with money.[/quote]
