[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why people think rich people would send their kids to schools with fewer advanced classes is so bonkers to me. [/quote] They believe (rightly or wrongly) that their advanced courses are actually more rigorous than the prescribed AP courses. But, there seems to be enough angst among those parents that those expensive privates don't offer AP classes, and how this might impact their kids' college chances. I have nothing against private schools. I thought about putting DC in a private school because DC seemed to need smaller class sizes. But this DC doesn't need any more advanced classes that our home public schools don't offer. And I think that is for the majority of both public and private kids. [/quote] Andover has almost no AP courses. Enough said.[/quote] Andover is not most private schools in a lot of ways. That’s certainly not the basis of comparison for this thread so let’s not pretend it is.[/quote]
