[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]And not even close to 50% ivy. [/quote] What school -- other than maybe traditional ivy-feeder prep schools -- end up with 50% of kids going to Ivy league schools? And, why would you want them to or expect them to? My kids' HS class has 500 kids. If half of them -- 250 -- all went to Ivys that would be about 30 kids going to each of the 8 colleges in the Ivy league. Do you actually think any one Ivy is going to accept 30 kids from just ONE HS? Or that a student ranked 250 out of 500 kids should even be accepted to some of the most selective colleges in the country? [/quote]
