[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Every BASIS parent event I attended included an intense pep talk on how their college admissions are "The best in DC!" Some admin invariably would always reel off a list of high powered colleges recent grads were admitted to. Yea, MIT, HARVARD, YALE. They did this even if the meeting was to talk about fundraising or an another unrelated subject. The drill got embarrassing over the years. The further we get from BASIS, the better I understand why families of some of the highest achieving middle school students leave for programs where school leaders aren't as obsessed with MIT, Harvard, Yale. I point this out as an MIT grad.[/quote] No one cares where you went to school.[/quote] We care. When MIT grads think that relentless Basis intensity on college admissions is a drag, I’m gonna agree, me with my degree from a small public univ down South. The complaint is valid and you guys know it.[/quote]
