[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here.  I have not posted in this thread since 5/15.  You are welcome to verify that with Jeff. 
There are multiple people posting as me or assumed (by others) to be me.  It's funny how people assume that a OP will post and then stick around and converse for days and days.  I'd bet that many people post and then never return. 
It's also striking how many different directions this post went since I posted.  It hit most of the emotionally-charged college topics.   [/quote]

So you came, dropped a grenade, then disappeared? Cool. You are shallow, mean, and not very smart, OP. Your daughter must fit right in at NCS.[/quote]

Whoa. As a new NCS parent this is pretty mean, right? And those saying that your daughter has PTSD etc. from
NCS - there’s no way to compare that though, right? My own senior year in public was super hard with all of the AP classes etc. I think high school is simply supposed to be challenging if you intend to compete for a top school. No matter where you are. We chose NCS because we want our daughter to be able to compete in sports, learn, have fun, and be in a supportive environment for women. We aren’t buying an outcome or college admission. And so many of these posts are delusional. We do interviews for our schools and the standards are simply through the roof. I am blown away by how incredibly impressive so many applicants are. The goal posts are simply moving. Kids that could have gone anywhere now have much more limited options. Bottom line. The women from NCS would not have vastly more opportunities if they had attended public if that’s the point of the post. Who knows how motivated they would’ve been, how many extras they would have done if not required, etc.?[/quote]
