[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Crimson prefers public school students over private. Also, they prefer to work with international students.[/quote]

Yes, because it's well known now that your chances of elite college admissions are better in an uncompetitive environment. It's easier to stand out in the school, grading is easier, etc. [/quote]Waterford!

Many.public schools have competitive environments, but they have fewer networked students.  That is more likely what he is trying to avoid.

I think the telling part of the article is the way he sees these schools as if they are trying to reject as many students as possible and only interested in status. That is not our experience (we are public school family with 2 at Ivies and no coach). He makes it adversarial to justify all these hiding. And then he uses that branding to fuel his business.

Same poster.  Not sure where that Waterford came from. Some kind of bizarre autocorrect I guess.  Sorry for the weirdness [/quote]
