[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Whitman grad whose kids are at Wilson. The fact that Wilson is more diverse in all ways and not 95%+ go to 5 year colleges are the main differences. The UMC parent pool and the kids are virtually interchangeable. 
Whitman college counselors are also a joke. That’s only a private school thing. Informed and driven parents guide the process with their kids too. [/quote]

The numbers in the college admissions don’t really support what you’re saying.

Agree.  Whitman's results from last year are much better than Wilson's if you're coming UMC to UMC. Wilson's were just not good at all. I'm not sure what happened.  Walls' were much better too. [/quote]

Uh some people living in a 1M+ house with multiple kids can’t always afford to send their kid to an Ivy. I’m not sure why people are so competitive about where their kids go to college. In the end, it’s what you do with the education that matters. So pathetic.[/quote]

So they're getting in but turning them down?   But the Walls and Whitman kids have the money?  right.  [/quote]

I don’t think they’re applying. Or if they are it’s a long shot on attending. I think there are a lot of families that aren’t financially stable enough for multiple kids in Ivy Leagues. You know all the DCUM folks that think $250k is middle class.[/quote]
