@panpacific I live in NJ. I am talking about all of them, Lawrenceville, Peddie, Blair, etc and even many of the private day schools.

There is no difference in terms of college acceptance and actually they are weaker than the county magnet schools, particularly the ones in Monmouth County.

They appear better because they are selective and have a greater concentration of high stat students. However, stat for stat there is no difference. Many parents learn this the hard way.

Keep in mind, NJ has some of the best public high schools, so it doesn’t surprise me.
