<p>Middlesex is a GREAT school. They are known for their writing program but they are strong in all academic areas. Because it is a small school you will be involved in many aspects of school life. Middlesex encourages students to expand their horizons and to try new things which I think is great. My child eventually chose to go elsewhere, but I found Middlesex to have a level of personal engagement with us that I didn’t see at most other schools. If you were accepted they believe that you have something to offer the school and they believe that you will take advantage of what the school has to offer you. Around CC Middlesex doesn’t have the same “prestige” as some other schools, but Middlesex is in the same league. Congrats and good luck!!!</p>

<p>Thanks, i agree with the aspect of personal connection. I also think it doesnt get enough hype. It is the 6th ranked school that is very selective. It is higher ranked than choate for gods sakes. Well, thanks anyway. :slight_smile: </p>

<p>"Choatie"mom (speaking as a CRH graduate 1989) I have to commend your kind, helpful comment to a kid above-- “wink” … you continue to add to Choate’s reputation on this forum.</p>

<p>Middlesex is a great school jefe, source- i go there</p>

<p>ChoatieMom - you beat me to it. </p>

<p>Middlesex is indeed a great school, even if it isn’t Choate. It should market an ACRONYM w the other elite academic standouts: </p>

<p>St. Paul’s
Middlesex
Exeter
Groton
Militon
Andover</p>

<p>I’M SO CONFUSED. I thought @ChoatieMom’s comment was a little joke, hinting that some people should, I guess, proofread their posts. </p>

<p>It’s very hard to read social cues when there is no interaction in person. :D</p>

<p>@stargirl3 It was a gentle ribbing.</p>

<p>1/ Middlesex is known for its writing program.
2. Title of post is grammatically incorrect.</p>

<p>Ergo, OP will benefit from life at Mx.</p>

<p>@GMTplus7 That was gross the first time you posted that; it does not get less gross over time. ;)</p>

<p>@ski,

Whenever people start ranking schools, my eyes glaze over…</p>

13

<p>@skieurope Im quiet a grammer freek meself</p>

<p>Okay, I’m done now. Thanks for the clarification! :)</p>

<p>Thanks, @skieurope for rescuing me. Yes, my comment was meant only as gentle ribbing.</p>

15

<p>If you have been following ChoatieMom on CC you would know that she would never make an obnoxious comment unless if it were meant for satire, which in this case it was.</p>

16

<p>It was funny, and everyone was thinking it, anyway. She just got to it first.</p>

<p>GMT-not impressed, just sayin</p>
