<p>I have to wholeheartedly agree with Justice. I have some friends who currently go to Andover, and, while some may be considered "privileged," the general concensus is that many are not. These kids work incredibly hard in an environment that you would imagine to be overly competitive and drowning in pressure, but the truth of the matter is that the facade is an illusion. I have to give Andover their repute of intense academia, but the environment is just not as cut-throat as imagined. Those who excel at Andover (those who don't are a small minority) are those who not only have the intellect to do so, but also the ethic to work hard and reap benefits. These are are the kids that HYP want, and it's no surprise that they'd pluck their future class from such an excellent field.</p>
