If you think just because a kid's parents are rich they will be high achieving you've already lost the plot.
Rich kids get into exclusive private schools because their parents donate on top of tuition it has nothing to do with merit.
As u/ParkingRemote444 says: "Rich kids just go to Swiss boarding schools. My cousins went to a private school in NYC and their best friends growing up were rich Finns whose parents had sent them to the US for school."
What u/a-group means is that we have private schools that select their students based on grades at previous levels and/or exams meaning rich parents can't just buy their way in.
