[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]trinity is known as the destination for the wealthy New England [b]prep school kid ranked in the bottom half of their class[/b].  Most are fun cool kids who don’t prioritize academics.   The comment about wall street is accurate - the kids have personalities and know how to talk to people[/quote]

Well the cds says [b]93% of freshmen were in the top half of the class[/b], so maybe you are completely uninformed?

(and by "maybe" I mean "definitely" so maybe don't post without doing even 10 seconds of googling?  Then you won't look so silly.)[/quote]

No dog in this fight, but both of these facts can be true at the same time. [/quote]

It says 93% of enrolled freshmen were in the top half of their class.

You tell me how that can be true and also that it can be a "destination for prep school kids in the bottom of their class".

I can only think of one way: that the 7% of the kids from the bottom half of their class were ALL from prep schools AND make up the entirety of the prep school kids who enroll.

That seems extremely unlikely, and without any supporting evidence there is no reason to believe it.

You don't need to have a "dog in this fight".  It isn't a fight.  So don't bring a dog.  Bring facts.[/quote]
