[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]... The thing is, us researchers have a hard time believing statements like "Sidwell is the plurality preference" without actual data ....[/quote]

Perhaps some of you researchers should propose some actual data that might answer the question.  The only data point I've seen from any of you is that Gonzaga gets 1000 applications, which (I hope you agree) is an incredibly flimsy rationale.  (BTW, where does that 1000 applications number come from anyway? Source?)

I completely agree with the point some people have made that the best school for any individual child is a personal choice, and cannot be determined by any amount of numbers and data about what the plurality might prefer.  I also am not touting Sidwell, or any other school for that matter.

I'm just surprised that all you economists, numbers people, and self-professed math geeks are spending all your effort criticizing other approaches, and not offering any of your own.  Consider this a friendly and respectful challenge.[/quote]
