[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]At some level, if paying $70k/year to send your kid to private school gives your kid a leg up in college admissions - whether through connections/name recognition or even through a legitimately better education - then that reflects an unfairness in society that we ought to be pushing back against, since it's not something most people can afford.

So if you assume (naively?) that post-Trump we're going to be back in the mindset of trying to make the world at least a little bit better bit by bit, one can expect the marginal benefit of sending your kid to Trinity on their college admissions prospects will be substantially lower in 13 years than it is now.[/quote]

On the contrary I would have assumed that the current move away from racial profiling and focus towards qualifications only regardless of income or race in admissions would actually help students who attend a highly intense high school and come out highly qualified. [/quote]

A highly intense high school that you don't have to be wealthy or win a financial aid lottery to attend, sure. So yay SHSAT schools, boo TT privates.[/quote]
