I would strongly urge international applicants to use an agency. Once you factor in tuition, travel, etc., this is a $150K+ investment. Certainly it's worth someone doing the research into which school is the right fit for a specific child.
D'yer, thanks, as always, for your fine analysis. None of the ranking systems - high school nor college - take into account where students start and where they end up. Is it really so amazing if a school can take the 12 smartest ninth graders in the universe and get them into Harvard four years later? What's harder to measure is what a school does with the raw materials it's provided when the raw material is, well, still raw.
