[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You can get the same info with an online search. The fact that students X from STA got in with a certain GPA/test scores is not helpful when it doesn't share the other factors that helped that kid get in. [/quote]

It's more helpful than the generic stuff online.  A 4.5 GPA from public high schools doesn't translate to a GPA from STA.  Not to mention you don't know the other factors that helped that 4.5 PS kid get in.[/quote]

Except that Sidwell kids aren't doing so well this year with prestigious universities, who don't want to accept privileged kids anymore, who are boring and add nothing to classroom discussions, and have have extensive advantages in terms of test prep, tutoring, etc., that public schools don't have.

Don't forget that. Doesn't look pretty this year for Sidwell.

How would you have any idea? My kid is in the senior class and there have been many acceptances to all sorts of great schools.[/quote]
