[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s pretty interesting. I was just looking at a lot of the Instagram pages for the local publics and privates where the kids are posting where they’re going and, yea, you see more Ivy admits from the top privates but beyond that by and large the kids from the better publics are doing just as well as the top privates. And as others have noted, the top privates likely have a lot more Ivy legacy kids and that skews the numbers. The lesson I’m learning from all of this is that there’s no readily apparent edge for college admissions by sending your kids to a top private school in the DMV if you live in a good public school district. I don’t know why people spend all that money for private other than to make themselves feel special I guess. [/quote] College prep. Lots of kids from publics fail out of undergrad. [/quote]
