[quote=Anonymous]People need to stop obsessing with matriculation data. The matriculation numbers are usually just reflective of how many hooked students there are in an application cycle. Prep schools like GDS have many Ivy legacies, athletes, and URMs. Even with affirmative action technically banned, many of the URMs are low income and are on scholarship (which colleges are using as a race-proxy). If your kid isn't hooked, their college admissions outcomes will always be stronger if they go to a school where they can end up at the top of their class. The top 5% at Jackson-Reed will have much better outcomes than a 4th decile unhooked student at any elite private school.[/quote]
