[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is BS. Sorry. Look at the college list for St. Albans or Choate.[/quote]

And this would tell you what exactly about the subject at hand?[/quote]

That they still have more than 30% of their class matriculating to Ivy+ schools.[/quote]

That 30% is only 24 kids, which is in fact fewer than the number of Ivy+ matriculations in the same year from several of the local public schools. [/quote]

You have to compare percentages, not numbers.  Do the local publics have more than 30% of the class going to Ivy+, and close to 50% going to top 20 schools?  I think not.[/quote]

+1.000

[b]I got reamed for laughing about TJ recently but if you look at the facts on the ground for TJ

It's less than 10% going to IVY plus
[/b]
and less than 33% going to a school better than UVA aka Top 20 or above lolz[/quote]

but what public high school in America does better? Specifics please.  (This came up once before and there was indeed one school in the mid-west that did as well or better - one school).[/quote]
