[quote=Anonymous][quote]True. I guess the question I want to ask is how do these schools get so many kids into top colleges and universities? Honestly if I have a kid who is not TJ/Blair material and he gets into STA or Sidwell, he has a good shot at getting into a nationally ranked University or SLAC. Maybe I would cough up $40,000 to see if he could into UVA and W&M.[/quote] A kid from RMIB/BLair magnet/TJ doesn't need Big 3 to get to college (HYPSM)...that's a step backwards. They need pedigree, legacy and/or big donor status to cement the deal! These kids, without the latter, a far better staying where they are ... at the top of the academic heap![/quote]
