[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]To repeat a previous point, your kid will end up where they are meant to end up for college. Kids from the top privates, Walls, JR, Latin, Basis, DCI are all ending up at the same types of colleges. If your kid is a Harvard kid, then they can get there from any of these schools, barring the obvious fact that Harvard (and other top schools) are lotteries at a certain point.[/quote] Perhaps. I was a public school kid who went Ivy. My brother went private and wound up at good, but not Ivy, colleges. They were in more activities, same kind of grades, and one with better test scores. I absolutely believe I benefited from coming from an economically diverse public school. That was many years ago so it may be different now.[/quote]
