[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I heard Trinity in NYC this year has 9 kids going to Brown? that's wild![/quote]

NYC kids are typically very impressive and often with hooks too. I think there are 6-8 girls at The Spence School going to Harvard this year out of a class of 60! Half of Brearley’s class is going to Ivies + Stanford & MIT. Saint Ann’s, Dalton, Hunter, Stuyvesant all have excellent outcomes too. Nothing new there. These are their results (almost) every year.

Almost everyone of these have $50k-100k per year counselors right from 8th grade. [/quote]

No, they do not. The schools themselves provide the college counseling. I personally know a kid well at one of the privates going to HYPSM with zero outside help. What he does have is 1580 on the SAT that he got at one sitting the summer before his junior year, a 3.95 GPA and a niche major that is his true interest and intended course of study. 
The rigor at those schools is insane. Their students are extremely well prepared for college and do very well. [/quote]
