[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Looks like on average 4 graduates a year (out of a typical class of 115) get into an Ivy.  Yea, that's worth $45k.[/quote]
yup and I'll bet on average 2-3 of those are girl's lax players.  [/quote]

I cannot believe I’m on here correcting this because the attacks on St Stephens college list are so ridiculous, BUT…

Around 5% of the graduating class (looking at last 5 years) goes to an Ivy, Stanford, or MIT
Around 10% goes to Williams, Georgetown, John’s Hopkins, and similar top private schools
Around 20-25% goes to UVA, William and Mary, or other top public schools
The rest go to a mix of solid colleges and universities.

No one is going to argue that this compares to Sidwell, where something like 18% of kids go to an Ivy. But not all of us want an academically intense experience for our kids. And of course St Stephens sends more kids to top colleges than a local public school, mostly because the population of kids is richer.

this is bullshit.  these numbers don't match the information the school releases.  [/quote]
