There are over 2000 private high schools and over 20000 public high schools in the US, plus who knows how many internationally.

How many matriculants at Harvard would you expect any top U.S. private school to have when the incoming class size is around 1600 students?[/quote]

More than this.  These schools are supposed to be the best in the DMV. [/quote]
Give us a number. What should it be? It's like you don't know that there are also dozens of highly regarded privates in NYC, LA, Boston, and other top cities plus boarding schools.[/quote]

No, I know it all right.  And those schools largely do better than the top schools here and often MUCH better.  [/quote]

One example:  Dalton in NYC.   75 grads matriculated at either Harvard, Yale or Princeton in the last 5 years.  37 at Harvard alone.

The Big 3 are little fish in the Big World of USA privates.  [/quote]

25 from Brearley going to Harvard from ‘21 to ‘25.

There’s just no comparison.   Let get real. [/quote]

Hmm, I see TJ but nobody else in the DMV and certainly no Big 3

What are you talking about?  In the image you share, Georgetown Day is right there under Deerfield Academy.  [/quote]

+1  Georgetown Day is also in the following image where they show schools that have sent at least 1 student to Harvard since 2009.  It's not in the last image where it shows that "of all schools that have sent students to Harvard, one in 11 students has come from just 21 high schools across the United States."  From the DMV area, only Thomas Jefferson magnet is there.[/quote]
