[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Simple, these schools breed strong students.[/quote] [b]I think, overall, students are average[/b]. It's just there are more legacy parents with money in these schools that definitely helps to swing the scale. If you take kids from the TJ, a lot of them get accepted to ivys, but not too many actually going there. [/quote] I disagree. If you take a look at the kinds of independent academic pursuits, the time spent over summers and breaks doing unique things, plus having strong board scores and extracurriculars, these are generally not average students. Certainly many are, but the top 40-50 kids in each grade are pretty impressive.[/quote]
