[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]...At least at our public school there is a very large group of motivated students who go to top colleges. While the percentages might be lower, the sheer numbers are large. So maybe 20-30% of the class is going to top colleges - that's 150 kids. That's a pretty good peer group.[/quote] Could you please tell me which local public school has 20-30% of each class going to top colleges? [/quote] Surely depends on how "top" is defined, right? Top 10? No way. Top 50? Absolutely. [/quote] Thanks, yes I meant more like top 25 on each list (SLAC and University). I have a possibly more expansive view of "top" than the private school crowd? Of course we don't have 20-30% going to Ivy League schools. If that's what you want you probably need to get your kid the heck out of Dodge and go to Andover or Exeter. Keep in mind the number one college destination for last year's Sidwell class was University of Michigan.[/quote]
