[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]pp - yes, I do. She would have been lumped in the "average" group for her entire schooling. Public schools are so big that especially for girls...if they're nice and keep quiet, no one will ever bother to notice them.[/quote]

Honest question though -- would that have affected her outcome?  I was a nice, quiet girl who studied hard and got good grades.  So I got into Ivies too, from totally average public school.  Granted, that was longer ago and easier to get in back then.  But my test scores and grades were top level.  Are you saying your daughter would have gotten lower grades and test scores had she been in public?  Because a quiet girl with great scores/grades can do very well from anywhere.[/quote]

I believe it is what the student does with their education, not so much public vs private. There are children in public schools who excel and children in private who could care less and vice versa. You just need to find the right fit for your child.[/quote]
