[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]These schools are hard to compare. My two cents is to forget about Niche and test scores and think about what is best for your daughter. There are bright, average, and below average students at both schools.

[b]If you think your daughter would be better off in an all girls environment but don’t want the pressure cooker of BMS, then maybe expand your search to include RPCS , St. Paul’s, etc.[/b]

If you think coed would be better focus on coed schools like park and friends…

Personally I would prioritize fit over test scores.[/quote]

I think it’s time to let go of Bryn Mawr’s reputation as a ‘pressure cooker!’ Yes, it’s the most academically rigorous of the schools you listed, but there is far more awareness and support for students’ mental health than there was in the past.[/quote]

I wouldn’t say most academically rigorous.  These schools all have academically rigorous tracks and you cannot compare them by overall average test scores.[/quote]
