[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not a Sidwell parent, but I understand that after 13 years of paying half a million dollars of tuition, parents expect more than settling for a college with greater than 50% acceptance rate. If you ask parents to adjust their expectations, you are basically telling them the money invested has been wasted. Why? Because they could have gone to a 50% acceptance rate college from a public school for free and save the tuition money for college.

There are some things that money just can’t buy. I suspect that schools have tightened their “doors” post-Varsity Blues, extending that to tactics like college counselors advocating on behalf of individual students, which basically does not happen in public schools at all. [/quote]

???  It doesn't happen in private schools either. No one who isn't an idiot thinks it does. [/quote]
