Private schools are not all created equal. And the admissions gauntlet can be a special kind of hell.

Can you speak more to the gauntlet? Had a bunch of friends go private in SF this year and other than “play date interviews” it seemed like a breeze?

The interviews are about vetting the parents than the actual child. The criteria are opaque and fraught with nepotism and discrimination.

There is a veritable cottage industry of admission consultants charging up to $10,000 for interview prepping the family.
