[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Methinks this recent talk about two different tests - one for Beauvoir boys and another for "the others," as well as the talk suggesting Beauvoir feeds a lower percentage than one might think, is yet additional evidence of a hobby around here . . . to bash and diminish Beauvoir. Fact 1. All C form applicants take the same admission's test. Fact 2. For the last 5 years, no more than 3 boys from Beauvoir have been rejected each year. Yes, some of the 40 boys are advised not to apply for various reasons, and a few always say no after getting the acceptance. But as a general matter 90% of the Beauvoir boys who apply to STA get into STA.[/quote] Are you a member of STA's admissions committee? If not, no way that you can be sure of "Fact 1." From the comments of non-Beauvoir parents and my son's comments after the test clearly the material was on a more difficult scale for non-Beauvoir applicants, i.e., the math section. [/quote]
