[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You can look up Sidwell and GDS at Polarislist.com which ranks high schools by how many kids they sent to Harvard, Princeton and MIT in 2018-2020. Sidwell sent 9, ranked 148 GDS sent 16, ranked 66 Notably MIT which doesn’t give legacy preference accepted 1 kid and that was from Sidwell.[/quote] Sidwell kids generally don't apply to either Princeton or MIT, so if that is what the ranking is based on, then it is pretty self-selective.[/quote] +1. Most kids don’t apply to Princeton or MIT (bc they don’t have any chance of getting in) so yeah, it is a self selective.[/quote] And yet the comparison was: MIT SFS: 1 GDS: 0 Princeton SFS: 2 GDS: 3[/quote] Princeton gives preference for legacies:). Overall, DC privates were not impressive at all especially compared to NYC privates and New England boarding schools.[/quote]
