[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]...In DC's year, this single "top ivy" accepted a dozen+ kids from just my own DC's public high school. It's true about half the kids turned down the acceptance to go to non-Ivies that offered merit aid, so fewer actually matriculated, a few short of your guess of "8" for the whole DMV area.[/quote] New poster. I'm curious about this. Here are stats on how local MD public schools recently did on college admissions. http://bethesdamagazine.com/College_Chart.pdf Very few Ivy colleges accepted even an even dozen (much less a "dozen+") from local public high schools. I recognize this list is just for 2013, so maybe it's slightly different in other years (better or worse). But I see only one example here that fits ... 14 accepted from Blair to Columbia. The only other combo that's close is 12 accepted to Cornell from Whitman. [/quote]
