[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think private schools like Tufts and Emory have a networking advantage over the top state schools. I would think there’s probably more wealthy and well connected students at privates. I don’t think there’s much difference in academics, with the exception of a specialty one school or the other might have. Unless I could pay my kids private tuition just as easily as in-state tuition, I probably wouldn’t encourage my kid to go to the private school, but that’s because I don’t value getting ahead through connections.

Not really - the wealthy kids tend to keep to themselves. And it is not at college but high school where the tight knit connections at privates are made[/quote]

Dumbest DCUM post of the day. [/quote]

Says the non wealthy non private school person.  Connections are made in the private HS. You see the same person every day for over 6 years in the small private school and parents mix and get to know each other at school functions and sports and volunteering together. [/quote]
