[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]NMS are the top 1%, people, which in MoCo is >2200.  Anyone that claims that xyz school is responsible for minting more NMS is just finding another way to say they have more students in a particular upper middle class demographic.

This board is not going to change anyone's comfort level with diversity.  The Ws appear to thrive on those fears.  Give parents at Blair/Einstein/Northwood/Kennedy/Wheaton and even B-CC credit for working as hard as they do on behalf of a truly diverse group of students.  The rest of you can just keep writing those taxes for your expensive homes.[/quote]

Or perhaps it's a response to those who repeatedly claim, with scant evidence to back it up, that their own upper middle class kids do just as well as DCC schools like Einstein as they would at the Ws or B-CC.

Guess it's harder to deal with [b]the facts [/b]than to give lectures to others on how they overpaid for their expensive homes and can't handle diversity.  [/quote]

Could you explain what facts you are referring to?

I'm the PP with a son at Einstein and an Einstein grad who is headed to med school this fall.  She went to a top college, graduated cum laude, did well on the MCATs, and is well-adjusted and happy.  I have no idea how she would have done, had she attended one of the Ws or BCC, so I have no "evidence" that she did just as well at Einstein as she'd have done elsewhere - but why does that matter?  She is doing great in all regards.  We couldn't be happier.

Her circle of friends from high school (some of whom were at our house last weekend for a cookout) are doing well too.

So this is "scant evidence"?[/quote]
