[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There are 7 TT schools. Then there are schools that many people would consider highly selective that aren't on that list - think Regis and St Anns - those are 2T. [/quote] In no world is Regis a 2T. That is one of the most selective schools in the country.[/quote] If you keep repeating “There are 7 TT” enough maybe it will become true? [/quote][/quote] You must be new. [/quote] And you may be struck in UB times. TT school definition is not equal to - say - Ivy League. It is a subjective classification used by parents familiar with the NYC private school scene. It may evolve over time. This thread illustrates that the line between 2T and 3T is already very blurry and that the statement “there are 7 TT schools” may also be up for debate. [/quote] This, too. Times change. Schools that some of you say ewwwww to as if you’re 8 and not 58, have very low acceptance rates. Getting in and doing well at most schools discussed here requires diligence and creativity and all that good stuff. I get the sense that a lot of mothers in particular take this branding to heart, and personalize what shouldn’t be. Why? Some of you need to take the stories of student self-harm and tragedies at Brearley, Chapin, and Regis more to heart and ask what the hell you are reinforcing in terms of competition. Discussion of same should not be verboten.[/quote]
