[quote=Anonymous]This conversation has jumped the shark OP...visit the school..ask admissions to speak to families about their experiences..they will give you a few. Do not take advice from DCUM..the vitriol is horrible if its not a "Big 3 or 5" or whatever. Honestly I am so glad my kids are not at these "top-tier" schools who take only a certain type of academic kid and they all have to compete against each other. Remember they are used to being at the top of their class and someone has to be at the bottom only increasing anxiety and pressure among those students. I would think about that and those schools who focus on the whole student vs. focus on the academics. Also, keep in mind around college admissions time many of these posters are also complaining about the fact that their "elite" school didn't guarantee a spot in specific elite colleges. The world is a bigger place than the Big 3 and 5. Good luck on the HS search!!![/quote]
