Than 30 years ago?  Who would even be able to compare and for what purpose?  Personally, I think your best shot is roc’s and Mcdonogh and bryn  Mawr are a tougher admit.  [/quote]

I don’t think people who post this actually know...  Bryn Mawr and RPCS are sister schools and take classes with eachother (and Gilman).  They have different cultures to be sure, but bryn Mawr is not materially better than RPCS.  GL.[/quote]

Whoa whoa whoa.... I went to Bryn Mawr. My nieces go there now. They aren't sister schools. Yes they both coordinate with Gilman and to a smaller degree, each other, but they are very different schools. [/quote]

You’re joking right?  Yes, they are - it doesn’t mean they are identical and of course they are different cultures, but they have dances together, take classes together and coordinate certain events together.  They are also big sports rivals and their spirit weeks coincide.

Like many of the other private schools in Baltimore, Bryn Mawr has a brother and sister school. Bryn Mawr's brother school is Gilman. These two schools are located across the street from each other. Bryn Mawr's sister school (as well as rival school) is the Roland Park Country School (RPCS). The three schools coordinate Upper School classes so that students may attend a wider variety of classes and so that they may interact with their peers at other schools.

Dp. But they definitely don’t consider one another “sister” schools.  Source, my kid who as attend bm for the past 5 years.  Very different places in ways beyond academic rigor, for example, rpcs leans conservative politically (lots of families support Trump while bm is very liberal.[/quote]
