I think we can't look at HYP individuals only, but really have to look at the percentage of students that succeed.

At TT schools like Dalton, 50% of graduates go to Ivies, 60% go to Ivies + Top 10 + T5 Lacs.
At Columbia Grammar, you may find a few individuals that go to HYP, but the matriculation results at large is not super impressive as TT schools.

Depends on perspective. Many of the TT schools seems to take highly motived and resourceful families, counsel out the children that don't produce, and recruit children that were already on track to get into a top university. A nurturing school that takes a B student and turns them into an A- student could be considered more impressive. [/quote]

Came across this message while searching the thread of info on private school.  Which schools would you consider "nurturing" that turns a B student to an A- student?  That's the kind of school I would like my child to attend and agree that is more impressive (to me).[/quote]
