[quote=Anonymous]The crux of the issue is whether the middle or lower ranked students at this great HS would have fared worse in the college admissions game. In other words, going to a Sidwell or GDS or STA/NCS might prevent these children from falling through the cracks and likely give them a major boost in terms of college admissions (and graduation, in terms of the rigorous academic prep). The well-off and academically strong students at the Big-3 will do well in college admissions regardless. There are very, very few HS in the country where 100% of graduates go onto college--think big picture here, not just about how an already highly privileged kid might do even better.[/quote]
