[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Does no one realize this is a dumb metric considering public covers a much wider range and percentile of abilities, socioeconomics, and even desire to attend college immediately following high school? Further public schools in this area could have a senior class 3x the size of a private school senior class.[/quote] Which is why anyone with half a brain usually makes comparisons involving specific public schools like Whitman, Langley, and Jackson-Reed which in many respects (e.g., full pay, Ivy legacies, recruited athletes in fringe sports) are fairly similar to the selective private schools around town.[/quote]
