[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DS is an OK student at a Big-3 (Sidwell/GDS/StA)--B average, with a good number of AP/honors/"upper level" courses. SATs average for the school (1400s). Let's assume no hook, or small hook. Full pay (no FA or scholarship needed.) Will probably write a strong essay, but not astonishingly good. What are typical target schools for this kind of student? Thank you![/quote]

Op I hope you feel good about the fact that you flushed $250k down the toilet to end up at this list!  At least you can still tell the people at the club you went to the Big 3.[/quote]

I’m so sick of guilty, jealous public school parents saying stuff like this. People send their kids to private schools for many more reasons than college admissions. At this point, it does probably hinder kids as far as admissions. Look no farther than the thread in FCPS Schools where all the teachers are too lazy to grade papers, including at the AP level. At least my kid will know how to write and get her papers graded.[/quote]
