First choice is Potomac, so not sure what to do.

Make sure Potomac knows it’s your first choice and you’ll accept if you get odd the wl.

We were in a similar position when our oldest applied and chose Potomac and have been very happy! Good luck w/ your decision. It’s a lot at once with all of the admitted family events.

The kids don't work that hard but get super high GPAs and do very well with college admissions.

Grade deflation is not a necessary part of learning. The girls at NCS who kill themselves for a 3.5 are not learning any more than the kid who gets a 4.5 at Field.



Wow Field is a nice school but is well known to be for students that struggle or have learning disabilities and you are saying they sent 10 percent of last year's grads to the Ivies? Are colleges not aware of the massive grade inflation? Shocking.

60 grads - 6 went to Ivies (Columbia, Dartmouth, 2 Harvard, Princeton, Penn)
