[quote=Anonymous]A senior girl died by suicide on Friday. Really talented, smart Presidential scholar. Maybe we could lay off their stats?

[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Former Brearley parent. Year after year about 25% of class goes to HYPS. With those in particular, it is a lot of legacy, but plenty of normal legacies. Only about 1/3 maybe get into their early schools so most of what you see is not legacy.  Plenty of fancy families but plenty of regular families

Other kid went to a different TT with great results as well but not quite the same.

Honestly, I can’t explain why colleges love Brearley so much. But I can say that these results are not reducible to hooks, which are common at all these schools. It plays a role, but the unhooked are doing fine as well. [/quote]

i can't really explain it either with respect to Spence.  The results are out of this world.  I understand some of it is $$.  But the broad based number of excellent schools across almost the entire student body says that it has to be something.

So far, Spence has 60 kids posted on Instagram which is probably their 99% or entire of the total senior population. the IVY+ Stanford+ MIT rate is 47%.. this is insane as i would think Spence is not as academically intense as Brearley or HM...[/quote] well it appears that the last 1% posted on IG today. 61 girls.  surprised at the Berkeley number and no Duke/Stanford/JHU is a bit surprising.  There honestly isn't a bad school in this list.

7: Penn
6: Chicago, Cornell
5: Harvard
4: Princeton, Michigan
3: Berkeley
2: Brown, Columbia, Williams, WashU
1: Yale, Dartmouth, Northwestern, MIT, Vanderbilt, Emory, Rice, Tufts, Wellesley, Swarthmore, Barnard, Colgate, Wake Forest, Vassar, Northeastern, Chapman, Kenyon, Wesleyan[/quote]

Extremely impressive and congrats to the seniors!

But maybe we can move onto more important questions, like how does this compare to Brearley?[/quote][/quote]
