[quote=Anonymous]I think it's highly unlikely that, on the whole, public school kids are better-prepared at "elite" colleges than private school kids, or vice versa. That said, to the extent I'm inclined to generalize at all, my sense is that the public school kids may initially adapt better than private school kids to the intro-level classes with hundreds of students, while private school kids may initially adapt better with the smaller, seminar-style classes. But the key word is initially, because if you're at a top college then the skill set to adapt quickly likely exists already and by the end of four years it's all a wash IMO.[/quote]
