[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have an example from my own life. Have daughter at Sidwell upper school. She eschoes everything said here. Great teachers and academics. Horrible toxic social culture and cut throat student body. I tell her it reminds me of Harvard Medical. Same thing. Best education possible. Great professors and mentors. But socially and with peers, it’s a four year knife fight. Hated every day and could not leave soon enough. Never donated a single dollar to that place. Only bad memories. When new applicants apply from my Alma mater, I assume it means that they are a smart but terrible person. That is what I see in Sidwell kids (not their teachers who are great).   Over confident, over privileged, smart, talented, depressed, toxic little people. Sad but true [/quote]

So, (1) you hated the “four year knife fight” that was Harvard Med.; (2) you  and your daughter agree that Sidwell sounds just like your miserable time in medical school; and (3) you still chose/choose to send your child to Sidwell.

It sounds like both you and your daughter are masochists. You don’t deserve any sympathy. Lie in the bed you made. [/quote]

This is so sidwell. This proves the Harvard Med lady’s point. Sidwell people are just horrible. [/quote]
