[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No one has data because the schools don't want you to know this.

-But talk to any parent of a senior this year or last. 
-Talk to a NW DC college admissions counselor. 
-Look at the schools' student-run Instagram pages from last year and this year (not prefect but give trends)

Listen, we're not making this up for kicks and thrills or to start drama for fun. Pretty much no one is getting in who isn't a minority or an athlete or a big donor's kid. 
OR feel free to keep paying the $55K per year and keep your head in the sand until your kid's senior year and you see this play out with your own kid.  That's honestly probably the best approach.

We keep paying the 55k per child each year for the education and experience. If my kids become interested in top colleges, cool. But that's certainly not why we're there. [/quote]

This. Why some people think that the quality of the last four years of education is more important than the quality of the previous 13 is beyond me. [/quote]
