[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not sure you realize this, but getting admitted to Andover is already like getting admitted to an elite college. The student body looks nothing like the population at large or even a public school. Due to the admissions process, this is already a population of kids that look like the Harvard study body. So yes, their admissions to college is at a real disadvantage.[/quote] Kids at Collegiate and Harvard Westlake come from similarly well resourced families with hooks and high stats. They are getting in at higher rates. Andover doesn’t have to worry about lifers who got in when they were 5 and can’t hack it. To get into Andover you need to have a lot going for you, so I don’t understand why you think they’re disadvantaged. [/quote]
