[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The odds are much better at B with all the slots available than at St. Patrick's.[/quote] A lot more people apply to Beauvoir plus the threshold is much higher at B - the scores are much higher...I don't know anyone whose child has below a 95% on testing[/quote] Getting into Beauvoir, unlike ANY other are private school, is more than just scores. Scores are a jumping off point, which by itself dings a good number of the applicants. After that, it's one's money, power, job title, looks, etc. that get thrown into the decision-mix. You simply don't have that calculation at St. Patrick's. And not to bash St. Patrick's, but your average family isn't going to spend over 25K on a school that most people have never heard of, or mistake for a parochial school. Bottom line - you will get a huge amount of applications at Beauvoir, proportionally much higher than other institutions.[/quote]
