I can tell you that in her friend group and adjacent friend group, which is roughly 20 kids, mostly rich and white (but not all), about 10 are in top 10-20 schools, no legacies, no athletes. Two deferred from an Ivy but ended up in top 15.
The rest are in the top 50 including UMD - I mention that b/c some had no choice, financially, to not go in-state but perhaps could have ended up in the top 20.
Great post!
OP here. Which high school does your daughter attend?
How would that help you, nosy OP?
One of the schools you asked about

Who cares?
Don’t you just want your kid to be happy, healthy, kind and productive?

No clue. I think more WJ grads go to MC and UMDCP than anywhere else.
