An improvement, but there are quirks. Collegiate has better exmissions than HM. Few people would put Marymount above Sacred Heart. Regis seems unfairly penalized for being less "upper crust" than the $70k schools. Hackley has become a popular destination for the K-8 boys who don't want a pressure cooker. Exmissions are similar to or slightly better than Fieldston these days. It's not remotely TT, but i in no world is it #36 below Calhoun.

It's not clear if we're comparing K-8 boys with only the K-8 components of the K-12s to make it apples-to-apples. If so, you'd have to discount the hill schools, which do well partly by admitting lots of high achieving kids at 9th grade. Fieldston and Riverdale are particularly social-emotional heavy in the early years compared to the boys' K-8s. One could also argue that St Bs is more rigorous than Collegiate in K-8... though it's not harder to get into.

I'm not going to attempt 35, but here's my top 20, considering their K-8 programs only:

1 Trinity
2 Brearley
3 Collegiate
4 St Bernard's
5 Spence
6 Dalton
7 HM
8 Chapin
9 St Ann's
10 St David's
11 Buckley
12 Sacred Heart
13 Nightingale
14 Riverdale
15 Allen Stevenson
16 Hackley
17 Fieldston
18 Browning
19 Friends
20 Packer

Agree with all but I wouldn’t have browning that high. [/quote]
