Is there any private IVY prep school in Canada like in Boston, NY, Philly?
Calgary have lot of private schools but there are only 3 best private school whose kids (not all) land up in top 10 US (IVY) university. But there is no special IVY prep school here who targets 2-3 top school in med/law/engineering/business.
GTA/Vancouver??
Indian parents are very particular about academics. Someone may know about this.
Rahul,
Are you talking about Charter / TLC / Science etc. schools in Calgary ?
The 3 best academics school in Calgary:
Weber Academy, Strathcona-Tweedsmuir, Rundle & ClearWater
Lot of parent and their kids can not take so much academic pressure so these schools are very choosy about admission. It’s like DPS Delhi (in 1980-1990’s I know) with kick ass competition in the class. Private/public/TLC/Charter is family's own personal choice.
I am talking about IVY prep school. They are prep high schools or sub-branch of a private school which has very strict selection criteria (kind of: IIT/Med mentoring in DPS Delhi 11-12th special section) and very expensive. Some Prep high schools in USA costs 20K/year. Does it worth or not that is also family's own preference/criteria.
I am not sure Calgary has IVY prep focus school. GTA/Vancouver??

I don't think there are any in Canada.
For sure there aren't any in GTA.
What's so great about an IVY prep school anyways?Most people who get into IVY league universities from the GTA area are from normal public schools and a few from IB.
I am also not so sure as to why an Ivy league school is considered a fantastic institution of education.
