[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Are parents really pissed if they spend $35k per year on an elite private high school, but their kid ends up at a 2nd tier or 3rd tier college (which likely could have been achieved had the kid just gone to a local public)? I ask bc I frequently meet alums of Gonzaga and the like who went to college at, like, James Madison or something like that. Seems like a huge waste of honey on the parents’ part. [/quote] Gonzaga isn’t “elite”[/quote] The thread is muddled. Agree that Gonzaga isn’t elite, but then lots of people chime in that they don’t care if their kid attends an elite college, when the thread wasn’t about that either. Go look at say Sidwell 25 grads. There is maybe just one kid going to Temple that is the equivalent of JMU (and one D1 recruit to ODU, but D1 athlete recruits are in their one bucket). That’s it…just one.[/quote]
