[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am a parent of a kid in a Big 3 ish school in another city.  Your kid is getting a great education and great preparation for college.  From where your (and my) kid is coming, they will be fine no matter where they go.  They have tremendous privilege and advantages.  It will be ok. Really.

I have 2 kids:  one at a LAC and one going to a school ranked 75-100.  Neither is Ivy and I’m totally fine with that.[/quote]

I’m sorry but why in the world are you on a thread about the Big 3 if you don’t even live in the DMV?  And who are you to comment on the high school education that kids in private schools that you have no experience with are getting?

I see time again posters who don’t live in the DMV but commenting on the college admissions forum saying that, hey, this is a national forum and college admissions is a national issue - fine, I guess, but this thread sure isn’t.

You are obsessed.  [/quote]

Get over yourself!  People from all over read this forum.  There is no requirement that you live in DC, although many of us had previously.  Having previously lived in DC and moving during my kids’ school years, I am very familiar with the DC private school scene.  Are you disputing that the kids in Big 3 schools are getting a great education that will prepare them for college??????  Or are you just uncomfortable that I called you out?  I mentioned that my kid is in a similar school to give you the perspective that I understand paying over $200k for high school and then having your kid not go to an Ivy.
