[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is where it shows that poster at 6:43 does not know how the inner circles of private schools work. The HS cannot call or push all kids who apply to a certain college equally - preference will be give to families that donated $$$ to the HS. Within the wealthy, there is another strata - those who donate $$$ to the private HS[/quote] Yes, you hit the nail on the head. When my child was recruited to Princeton for their sport (apart from their h.s.)...the elite private high school counselor was obnoxious. We weren't in the "super rich" class and they wanted to "save the Princeton spot" for a worthier, i.e. wealthier student. This stuff does happen. [/quote] Good for your DC, PP. I hope you waived your DC’s Princeton admission letter in that counselor’s face![/quote]
