[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This probably depends on what field the [unhooked] kids are going into.  Brearley is still very strong in the humanities, and a graduate is  guaranteed to have a level of verbal polish (and almost guaranteed to have a liberal lean).  Theater is mandatory for a reason.  And for STEM fields, girls with high level of aptitude are desirable, so 1 or 2 top math girls have reasonably good prospects (similarly to other top privates and publics).  At least that's my rough extrapolation from the few happy outcomes I am familiar with.[/quote]

Almost the entire grade is filled with happy outcomes, unless you mean happy outcomes only with respect to HYP.  Then it's only about 20% of the class that has happy outcomes in that narrow sense.[/quote]

The conversation is about HYP and some posters delusion that B is a genius factory, so much so that it leaves other TTs in the dust. Occam’s razor says some of them are super rich and can buy spots [/quote]

I haven't seen anyone say Brearley leaves other TTs in the dust.  If you can point out those posts I would be interested to read them.  I've only seen posters say TTs dwarf non-TTs in college successes, and then some poster (maybe you?) say it was all due to rich parents or squash.  I've gone through the thread and the only post I seeing comparing Brearley to another school specifically was one saying Brearley and Spence outcomes blow Riverdale out of the water.  Because Riverdale is not a TT, I don't think that supports your assertion either.[/quote]
Not PP, but as long as we are only going by HYPS acceptances from the instagram pages, Brearley *is* seemingly much more impressive than HM/Trinity, which in turn are much closer to e.g. Fieldston/Riverdale.[/quote]
