[quote=Anonymous]OP it's a numbers game... i don't personally know why people send their kids to an expensive private school, since it really shouldn't be to gain admission to an Ivy. Let's face it, these schools do not want to fill their classes with private school kids, they just don't. It's like the age old debate about UVA taking less qualified kids from Northern Virginia. There are folks on here who think this is a myth but it's absolutely true, because they could fill their entire first year class with NOVA kids, but they want kids from ALL over the country and world with varied backgrounds. It's the same problem with private school kids applying to Ivy's and other T20 schools. Some kid who is qualified is going to be on the losing side of this battle, so you need to be sure they have a wide range of schools that are actually realistic because the private school isn't doing you any favors.[/quote]
