[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m telling you, Burke, Field, SAES and a few others are the ultimate life hacks. If your kid can do well at these schools - with very little homework or intense pressure - they will get into the same colleges as the kids at “Big 5” schools.  You’ll see sh**ty responses to this, but don’t let it alter you. Check out the schools that everyone disdains. Then, look at the universities that the top 10-15% of those classes get into. Then, determine if your kid could be in the top 15%. And if the answer is yes, you’ve figured out a complex problem and given your kids the gift of normalcy.

But can you get the same level of rigor/learning at these schools that you can at the higher-pressure schools, with the same level of preparedness for these colleges?  Or is it not as good an education?

This is kind of a selfish question as my kid is torn between one of these schools and one of the high-pressure schools and we have to decide in 2 days...[/quote]
