[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For comparison, HM publishes 3-year stats but (by coincidence) they had 124 out of 539 graduates in the last 3 years attend Ivies, so 23% versus Brearley's 41%. Of course it's also the case that they had 539 graduates in the past 3 years - half again as many girls as Brearley et al, then double it by adding boys - so relative to the difficulty of getting in it's still a pretty good deal.[/quote] 20-30% to ivies is amazing for these TT schools (and certainly makes it seem worth it to try to get your kid into one), but 40+% is bordering on unbelievable in the current college admissions environment. There must be something in the water over at Brearley.[/quote] That “something in the water” is really just having your pick of kids that would have made it to ivies anyway regardless of where they went to high school.[/quote]
