[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m a parent who has spent $$$$ on a top flight non DC private. I think the answer is no. One factor you haven’t considered is that parents like me are more likely to be top school alums themselves. Between all those factors, I think it doesn’t much change admissions outcomes. And it certainly isn’t why I pay for private. [/quote] Same, but we're in DC. I don't think our teens will end up at more competitive universities than our neighbors' kids at public HS, controlling for confounding variables. I am certain they're getting different education experiences right now. Sometimes, it's the journey[/quote]
