[quote=Anonymous]I don't see why we're screwing around in this discussion with partial and obscure results from Sidwell; we all know Sidwell keeps their students' data on lock-down, and the data PP posted is crappy and incomplete.  Let's just do a full comparison against private schools that provide lots of data.

[u]2013 grads: School / class size / # attending Ivy colleges / % attending Ivy[/u]
Holton Arms: 85 seniors / 11 to Ivy / 13%
Landon: 78 seniors / 9 to Ivy / 12%
Potomac: ~90 seniors / 9 to Ivy / 10% (5yr average)
GPrep: ~115 seniors / 8 to Ivy / 7%
Bullis: ~100 seniors / 3 to Ivy / 3% (5yr average)
Whitman: 461 seniors / 20 to Ivy / 4%

Note: I know Ivy colleges are not the only good colleges out there, and I know lots of people might prefer certain non-Ivy colleges.  But they provide an easy measuring stick for this sort of comparison.  If you want to compare the high schools based on some other measure (e.g., USNWR top-25 colleges, HYPMS, top party schools in the PAC-10, etc), be my guest.[/quote]
