[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The Trevor hater is back to derail all conversations that mention it. Please go away.

It is on par with some of the other schools mentioned. Many very successful families choose these schools for a variety of reasons. And top kids at these schools do just as well as kids at TT schools. And often have a happier four years of HS doing so.

Not that I primarily focus on HS.[/quote]

The top 10% of Trevor is not doing just as well as HM or Dalton. [/quote]

are the trevor kids less intelligent, driven, motivated?  or is it the teaching?  or is it all about the parents $$, hooks etc?[/quote]

Most the intelligence and drive. There is more money at HM and the like but there’s enough at Trevor. The Trevor students just aren’t up to snuff even with large gifts to universities. [/quote]

Wondering this as well. What happens if an intelligent, driven, motivated kid attends Trevor? Do they not end up in the same place as if they went to HM?[/quote]

They’ll have a marginally worse outcome. Iron sharpens iron. Being around unintelligent peers weighs down your growth. [/quote]

what specifically can you shares about Trevor that causes your concerns?[/quote]

Please don't encourage them. Somehow Trevor made them angry so they have this horrible hatred towards the school. Trevor has its pros and cons. They go overboard on the cons. Top kids there do very well. Overall outcomes don't compare to TT, but a top kid has a very good chance at an Ivy. And will have four less stressful years of HS. One can better argue about the benefits of the lower school program but it is still not as bad as this person makes it out to be.[/quote]

The top kids don't do that well.  A top 10% student at a TT is going to an Ivy or Ivy equivalent.  You cannot say that about Trevor, not even close.  Regarding stress, it depends.  TT students are smarter so they rise to the occasion of more difficult work.  Trevor students are dumber, and can struggle to master watered down curricula.[/quote]

It looks like there are plenty of kids from Trevor going to Ivys and other good schools.[/quote]

Define "plenty."  A handful do.  Its matriculation is worse than a good suburban public like Scarsdale, which is free, and certainly worse than the better public high schools in the city like BS or Stuy.  The ROI of Trevor's 1mm price tag is........bad[/quote]

Sorry but their matriculation is not as strong as TDS https://scarsdale10583.com/section-table/278-events/11599-class-of-2025-off-to-college-where-they-are-headed[/quote]

BxS, Stuy and BT have huge classes and the kids go to a variety of schools. A lot of kids go to CUNYs and SUNYs.  [/quote]
