^ and the sad part is not that Syracuse is so horrible. It is that she worked her butt off and felt really let down. She wanted more. [ Reply | More ]

Do colleges really look at public versus private? My DC is in private and I wonder if we are just wasting our money. She tracks to a high school that scores about 150points higher on the SAT than the public school. The colleges don't care, do they? [ Reply | More ]

Colleges want kids from a range of schools, public and private. Probably the best thing to do is move to rural Montana for high school, be a super star, and then apply to great schools. You'd have a better chance than coming from a major urban hub like NYC [ Reply | More ]
