Yeah but where? In many areas of the country legacy families live in areas where public schools are really strong and de facto exclusive. So in those situations it makes sense to forgo private tuition and put that money into tutoring, ECs, and the 529.

Well about 90% of kids go to public school. Think it is 49.5 million public k-12 vs 4.7 million private school k-12 kids.

That is a big leg up. 12-20% of all high school students but 35% of spots at Ivy
