From a parent’s perspective, I think it is or should be. As long as the prospective student is “smart enough” and “organized enough” and “talented enough” and “confident enough” and “mature enough”, it appears that passionate curiosity drives the process to what many/most parents would consider ideal and/or excellent outcomes.

There are always students who geek out 100% for grades or stay in their hockey bubble or whatever, but the ever-curious kids seem to get the most out of the myriad of opportunities which differentiate these prep schools from the rest.
