Do you 'enjoy' spending time with your kids?
- Yes, most of the time we really have fun together
- Sometimes it's fun, sometimes it's really dull and aggravating
- Honestly most of the time it's not fun at all, but it's not supposed to be fun
- I really don't enjoy it at all, and wish I could spend less time with them

Anyone on who is at Marymount but also got an acceptance from Sacred Heart? Why did you choose Marymount over Sacred Heart?
15 replies [ Reply | Watch | MoreBoth are great schools, Sacred Heart strives to be waspy Catholic, as in "expect for the nuns and the crosses, we could be Spence", Marymount is more international and has non-UES traditional families, which I view as a plus. I got a full ride to Marymount for high school, graduated top of my class, and was accepted to Brown, Princeton, Williams. Penn and Georgetown, so not sure what you mean about smarter peers and better college placements. Marymount girls are smart, well-rounded and lack most of the silliness of the other UES girls' schools.

Those are all great schools but for "top in class" I would think that one would also be accepted to Harvard and Yale (at least they were in my public high school).
[ Reply | More ]last year or the year before (i'm not sure which) marymount got four girls in one class into harvard. does that satisfy your quota? seriously, though, their exmissions are much better than you think they are. it's a terrific school. they really empower the girls. and, no, i don't have a child there (i have boys). but i know a lot of people at both schools (all the girl schools, actually) and i have been uniformly impressed with the marymount girls i've met over the years (and they range from 2nd grade up to 11th). sacred heart has lovely girls as well, by the way. i just don't agree with the notion that marymount is a second class citizen in this situation.

I don't have a dd at a SS school but if I had to choose, it'd be MM over CSH. Bec academics/exmissions are the same but CSH moms on UB are so obnoxious about MM and MM moms don't retaliate and seem more civil.
