[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is where it shows that poster at 6:43 does not know how the inner circles of private schools work. The HS cannot call or push all kids who apply to a certain college equally - preference will be give to families that donated $$$ to the HS. Within the wealthy, there is another strata - those who donate $$$ to the private HS[/quote] This reminds me of a thread a few years ago. A FA mother was wondering if her private school had “slots” for certain kids to go to HYP and other elite schools, and wondered why her DC was not encouraged to apply to these schools by the high school counselor. She was pooh-poohed about it. Turns out to be true — highest bidders get pushed through by high school counselors. [/quote]
