[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We have a rising 9th grade boy who is torn between these two schools.  He's top of class academically, but also VERY into sports.  We'd love feedback from those with experience at these schools.
Vibe at the schools?  Social scene?  Academics?  Opportunities to play sports?  College counseling?

Thanks so much!

OP: take a look at the thread of Gonzaga versus Potomac.  It is clear that people are saying Potomac, not Gonzaga, is as academic pressure cooker.[/quote]

yeah, right.  By people you mean the Potomac booster who may or may not work for the school?  [/quote]

The fact somebody posted to compare Potomac to 2 schools makes me think they are a booster of Potomac or their kid didn’t get accepted to Landon or GZ and has a bone to pick.

Yes- Potomac booster you are the best.  You are winning at life—-(even if most people in DC haven’t heard of the school).  Feel better now?[/quote]

actually seems like the opposite...some upset parent that their child didn't get into Potomac and is now trying to find some form of "confirmation bias" that other options just as good/better.  Potomac has plenty of demand for it to need a "booster" to hype it up.

Potomac college matriculation is far more impressive than Landon if you're looking at Academics and their "rankings".  Not even close.  Landon athletes have a way better chance to get a D1/D2 sport recruit offer

disclaimer: i dont have a child at Potomac nor have in the past[/quote]
