[quote=Anonymous][quote]My DD attended NCS, none of her college friends had heard of it. Yes, many kids came from top boarding schools and other nationally-recognized day schools. Her grades and board scores were comparable to her peers. Not speaking for the other Big 3 pps, I assumed the school's name and reputation would carry some weight. In hindsight, sure my thinking was provincial, fortunately DD was a stellar applicant. [/quote] Why would you know the top schools in a city you don't live in, unless you have relatives there or lived there for a while or participated in a ton of national competitions? Can you name all the top prep schools in Los Angeles, for example? Especially at age 18, why would you care to store that information in your head?[/quote]
