he recommended all competetive boarding schools:

'core list'
choate
hotchkiss
taft
deerfield
lawrenceville.

others he recommended to look at:
exeter
st paul
the hill.

i might be second guessing his choices because i'm nervous about applying generally. i dont think i'll get in because my grades are not so spectacular and i dont have many long term ECs.

smaller class size and some general seminar form are important to me in a boarding school. with increasing demand from expats and their companies to get into my school, they've been struggling to keep class size down. typically i have 20-25 students in a class.

i left out emma willard, which is where my mom went (but i'd rather not go to an all girls school anyway...)
i have several generations of family at st marks, and a family member have been on the board, etc.
loomis-chaffee i barely have a legacy, i admit. one person went there and was on the board there a couple generations back.
