[quote=Anonymous]BTW, if anyone is interested in the general topic of whether the school reputation drives student success or whether more successful students simply select more reputable schools, this article in QJE (a great journal in economics) examined similar students who ended up attending more vs. less selective colleges to show that basically the effects of a high caliber college appear to be mostly attributable to the students in the college, not the college itself. I see no reason why this wouldn't be true for private or higher caliber high schools as well: https://www.jstor.org/stable/4132484?seq=1 [/quote]
