[quote=Anonymous]But ultimately according to pp, BASIS DC needs to up its game above and beyond that of BASIS Arizona in order to achieve the same results because the DC Metro area is far more competitive than Arizona. So it will be interesting to see whether BASIS DC can stand out among the other schools in DC (public and private) in a few years. If not, does that mean that BASIS, despite having the reputation of being for more rigorous, is in reality no better than any other school? Is using the elite school admissions even a fair barometer or is there too much emphasis on this one aspect and not enough emphasis on other things such as the readiness of the students for college, merit-based scholarships, etc. etc. Perhaps we latch on to elite schools because it is one of the more tangible things we can easily measure whereas looking at how students perform during and after college would be difficult to gauge and would require quite a bit of time.[/quote]
