Yes it’s different in our school. Kids that get into “main” are pretty smart - above average I’d say. Lots are deferred to satellite campuses. A select few get into and go to Schreyer.
BU kids are pretty much the same - there’s less of them (it costs so much more) but they are above average. Hey, the intellectuals at our school go to the Ivies (25 did last year) and other highly selective LACs like Williams. Those with slightly lower profiles choose places like Colgate, Oberlin and Kenyon. I guess it depends on the environment…
