[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What percentage of the senior class at Sidwell/GDS/STA/NCS has been accepted at a T25?[/quote]

***crickets***

Maybe the Niche rankings are right?  [/quote]

Going off of the Sidwell instagram page 33/63 posted students are going to top 25s which is a notably higher percentage than BIM. GDS has more than 40% of the posted class going to top 25s. Much more impressive to do it with a larger class since there is less variance and these schools also don't get nearly the same bump BIM does from having UVA as a top 25 school that your whole class gets to apply to in-state. BIM does not at all deserve its Niche Ranking, also do not believe a good high school experience can be had when your whole grade is smaller than a kindergarten grade at a T3. [/quote]

The Sidwell instagram is incomplete.  Many kids in the bottom of the class are not posting.  Plus, a lot of the top admits are hooked, unlike with BIM.[/quote]

I know 3 Sidwell students heading to Ivies who haven’t posted yet (1 Harvard, 1 Columbia, and 1 Penn). I’m sure there are other seniors who will attend Ivies or T25 colleges who haven’t posted…and may not.

Btw, attending Sidwell (the most well known  and one of the best privates in the DMV) is its own hook.[/quote]
