[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Blair is a strong program but niche, for STEM obviously but majority pre-engineering. RMIB is better for kids who like STEM and humanities, and produces excellent analytical writers across disciplines. Historically RMIB has had better college outcomes because Ivy+ schools prefer a broader liberal arts focus. Blair does better with MIT. Both are very competitive but RMIB students [b]are a little more chill.[/b] Last year RMIB produced twice as many NMSF as Blair. This year it was reversed, Blair produced twice as many. So the cohorts vary too.[/quote]

Debatable. From MS the truly brilliant kids went to Blair, the [b]grinders and strivers [/b]went to RMIB.[/quote]

Is "grinders and strivers" code for "other people's hard-working, ambitious kids"?

I mean, what a crappy thing to say, even anonymously. Even something like "overly intense" would be a less loaded way of putting it.[/quote]

And "truly brilliant" is laughable given those are the most intensely prepped kids in the state.[/quote]
