Don’t personally have experience with these schools, but I am in the Boston area and have friends who currently attend/have attended the upper schools of both Fay and BB&N. (Assuming you are also in the Boston area since BB&N is a day school). Both had great experiences, but from my understanding, here are a few downsides for Fay:

-If you plan to stay long term, BB&N goes to grade 12 while at Fay you will have to reapply for a high school at grade 9
-my friend at Fay found it hard for day students and boarders to connect, esp since boarding starts in middle school while many day students have been going since kindergarten

All in all, I am just a stranger on the internet who’s trying to remember details my friends have said to me in passing. So I would say don’t take my word for it and decide for yourself at revisit days!
