Right track for Northwestern?

When you have a school with that many kids there is bound to be some bright ones.



Yes, for sure, but there are plenty of big high schools (maybe not 4000 students big, but that is just because there aren’t that many schools that size) that almost never send kids to the most selective colleges. Warren Township has about 4300 students and surely there are some “bright ones” there too. But they very rarely (if ever) end up at Harvard, Yale, Princeton, or Stanford as they do from Stevenson.

Lane tech is a magnet school so I don’t think it is comparable.
