BIS is also for-profit. For-profit and education should never be in the same sentence. Just ask the Whittle School folks how that turned out for them.

Did you click the link? 6 out of the 10 are public school students. Get a grip.


Get a grip of my sarcasm, silly. (And I was referring to one school on that list in particular - i.e. the very scammy, for-profit one).

The only for-profit in the list is Siena. I’m assuming you mean Siena because it’s for-profit. Why do you think it’s a scam?

Ah this makes sense. One of those “extraordinary” teens is a total bully, but mom is their biggest promoter so now I know how they got in.

Som really great teens. One is particularly privileged (the one who “owns” an apparel company and won a down hill skiing company and sails around the world).
