[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Fieldston, CSH, Nightingale, St Anns, maybe Packer. Riverdale I would say has graduated to TT.[/quote] This is solid. Then 3T CGP, Trevor, Dwight, Birch [/quote] Not to be a hater but Dwight and Birch are lower than CGP and Trevor. Though Birch, which was getting kind of iffy, apparently has been moving up in the world.[/quote] Correct, BWL, while a lovely school, is nowhere near these schools. Also, Regis is a different kettle of fish, but academically is TT. To say anything else is insane. As someone who recently went through the process, I think there are two different times you can rank schools, and the list of 2T/3Ts will be different for K entry and HS entry, St. Ann's and Riverdale are TT for that. For HS entry, Nightingale, Sacred Heart, Marymount, Friends, Packer, Browning, CGP, Fieldston, are harder to get into. For the most part, these are schools you don't bother applying to unless you have certain test scores and grades in your K-8 (and are unconnected). Then schools that had more wiggle room were Grace, Trevor, Poly (particularly if you are rich and/or an athlete), Berkeley Carroll, Dwight, LREI, Hewitt and last was BWL and York Prep. To their credit, they take a range of students, and I saw the most diversity of class levels there...everything from a class of 4 students taking AP Physics, to a "culture of language" class for students who weren't able to take a language. It felt like they truly met students where they were, and worked as hard to challenge their brightest students as they did to support their ADHD program kids. Outliers that seemed to exist in their own bubbles--Loyola (although for Catholics and people who know, a 2T school), Xavier/Fordham Prep/Dominican, Avenues, Leman, UNIS...I'm sure I missed some, but this is off the top of my head.[/quote]
