Illinois is a good university too (#36).

Why are you so damn bitter about everything?

You are not an educator, so you are not a judge of what constitutes a good education or what prep schools have to offer over the average public school. I am an educator, 13 years as Adjunct Professor at Vanderbilt. My wife has a MA in Education and has taught K-12 in a variety of public schools in FL and TN.

We have attended public and private schools.

We have kids and grandkids who attended public and private schools in OH, FL and TN.

We know the differences in educational curriculum, content, breadth, depth and rigor among various K-12s and colleges, public and private.

You would be wise to not comment on matters in which you have no knowledge and experience. It makes you look like what you are, such as you are, a nefarious nabob of negativity.
