I agree with this. Westminster is where my oldest went to high school. He went to Notre Dame. It would have been very difficult to get into UGA because there are only so many kids UGA can take from Westminster. That said, if your goal is to get an unbelievable education, Westminster is terrific. Westminster has many many warts though.That has nothing to do with what I said.
I was responding to his point that his kids went through a significantly more rigorous curriculum than a Westminster student and used the number of APs as evidence.
If your #1 priority is to get your kid into UGA, Westminster is not for you. I was probably bottom 20% academically at Westminster and thought I was dumb until I got to college because I was surrounded by UVA/UNC/Ivy league students. As a result, I was extremely prepared when I got to college.
I can go into the other reasons why my parents elected to send me to private school, but getting into Georgia certainly wasn’t the #1 priority.
