[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] But I do also agree it's the humanities and all around education that defines a school like Brearley, plus the culture of the school if it fits. I feel like strong STEM is less unique, including at the competitive public schools, but if that's the main criterion and one doesn't care about the other factors, then quite likely other places are doing more. [/quote] Obviously one cares about many different factors, it's how you weigh them. Great literature and history education is extremely important, but for the right type of kid a little less civics engagement vs e.g. more hands-on bio research experience is a valid preference. Also: I was told by a friend that after an intense deep dive into Shakespeare at Brearley she truly learned to analyze his texts line-by-line... but she still doesn't really get that much enjoyment from reading him. Just something to ponder. [/quote]
