[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We went to sidwell friend's open house past weekend, I was not very impressed of either the curriculum or the facilities(including outdoor play areas) of the lower school. So I guess I must have missed something. Are teachers better? I guess it is a highly sought-after school, so they don't have to impress any one? Or the strength is at middle/higher school and people just want to get into the school earlier?[/quote]

I didn't care for it either. Found it dark and humorless. We'll look again at US.

But, yes, many people love it, which is great for them.[/quote]

Good luck with that.  Admit rate at 9th grade is about 8%.[/quote]
Lol, I know an admissions officer and she says the hype over the low acceptance rate is greatly overblown.[/quote]

So what is the acceptance rate or number of applicants?  We always noticed that each intake year has an increasing number of brilliant scholarship kids, usually non-Americans.[/quote]
She said more like 20 percent.[/quote]
