[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]STAs most recent class placements are an interesting indication. More than 20 out of the 80 or so kids went to Harvard, Yale, Princeton, Stanford and Chicago. A bunch more went to Duke, Vandy, Penn, Cornell, Columbia and NYU. When 50 or so out of 80 do that well ( and many of the others went to UNC, Michigan, Wash U, Amherst, and the like) there is something positive going on. [/quote] The STA student body includes a lot of legacy kids and kids of parents who have development donor potential ($$$$) which inflates their admissions. [/quote] If true, this is why the OP's question simply cannot be answered. After all, some other poster said there were just as many parents with money at Wilson . . .[/quote]
