[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It could be argued and was. And it was rejected TWICE by the courts, so hey, let's take it to SCOTUS so it can get rejected a 3rd time.[/quote]

Not even an ounce of merit to the case? Sidwell 100% correct?[/quote]

No, but two courts ruled against the plaintiff and forced them to cover court costs and legal fees. That is pretty determinative, isn't it?[/quote]

The legal system isn’t infallible, is it?

The fact she got into Penn after Sidwell suggests that like most things it may be more nuanced.[/quote]

Among students in the class of 2014, she wasn’t exceptional at all.  I would say academically in the top 50 percent of the class. Fine but not remarkable, and certainly no lock for HYP.[/quote]

What is your basis for saying this? Imagine being a parent trying to disparage a kid. Her standardized scores are enough.[/quote]

There are lots of Sidwell students with better scores and grades than what she had.  They don’t all get admitted to Ivy League institutions.  And they don’t sue over it, either.  The family seem like a bunch of entitled, narcissistic, myopic jackasses.[/quote]
