[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]PEA, Andover, St Grottlesex, and others at that tier do place more students per year into Ivys and T20s, but it is very unclear to me how much it is due to the school and how much it is due to parents who are alums from the college the student is applying to. [/quote] But more often than not these days, these kids are going to schools where the parents did not go. Still very good schools but maybe not Ivy (or at least not Yale). [b]How do you explain that? Does anyone have links to all of these boarding school Instagram sites?[/b][/quote] Donor and athletics. Boarding schools recruit in the same way colleges do. You also have athletes doing 13th grade in boarding school to become better recruits [/quote] It’s called a PG year….everyone from our day school who does a PG year goes to Harvard or Yale or Dartmouth.[/quote]
