[quote=Anonymous]For all those deciding this week, I am not one of the previous posters but reading this forum for years and knowing kids at almost all of these high schools and having kids at one of them, the CW seems to be as follows: Top pressure cookers -ncs, sidwell - ncs with an extra dose of grade deflation. Next down - gds - maybe Potomac not sure and holton and st Albans Next - maret - their parents seem to think they have thread the needle the best on this. Hard to know Next - ssas, Burke, field, bullis Surely I am missing many. The stress complaints have persisted for years but seem to have heightened in the last few years as college admissions has gotten harder and according to some note that the grade deflating schools make it harder. No judgement here but if you pick a pressure cooker don’t assume your kid will be that one who it doesn’t matter for. Whether at top of class or not, it seems to impact most. [/quote]
