[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I know some people want a Big 3 because they think it will increase their chances of getting into an Ivy. I'm sending my daughters to a Big 3 because I know how hard it is to get into HPY and their chances are .01 while competing against the very best AROUND the WORLD. So rather than thinking about college I want to make sure they get a solid education every step of the way. Even if they end up at UVA with other public school students it doesn't matter. I provided them the best that I could and they're going to school with kids who will go to HPY. BTW, there are public school students at HPY too. If you have the money it's not a waste. Its only a waste if you buy a Birkin bag. [/quote] Yes, $160,000 is a lot to gamble for a spot at schools that only accept about 5-8%. If you're sending them to private for this reason I'd think twice.[/quote]
