最近小孩小学毕业，我也开始对洛杉机华人区高中开始研究。不怕诸位砸砖，我是比较热衷爬大藤。现在和大家分享一些信息，抛砖引玉。信息不全，请洛杉机华人朋友多多补充。我心目中的大藤含五所大学，Harvard, Yale, Stanford, MIT, Princeton.洛杉机好的私高，有Polytech, Harvard Westlake, and Chadwick,很难考进，学费较高。洛杉机华人区，学区好的有Whitney High (Cerritos), San Marino, Arcadia, South Pasadena, Walnut, Diamond Bar, University High (Irvine)，Parlos Verdes (Peninsula High and Parlos Verdes High), La Canada. 这些学校很多不公布爬藤报喜榜，所以我的信息支离破碎，请大家补充。Whitney High在南加公立高中排名第一，需选拔入学，亚裔众 多(74.9% Asian, 7.3% White), 2010年高三有169名学生,爬大藤方面，是3 accepted by Stanford and 1 by Yale，其余可能是0，似乎难以匹配南加第一的名头。San Marino是南加传统白人富人区，只有single family house,不过现在已沦陷，成了亚裔富人区，高三约282学生,约63% Asian and 28% white。2010年有3 for Stanford and 2 for Yale，比想象中华人西区第一名校有些距离。Arcadia应是华人西区第二名校，人口涵盖很多富人，中产，及少数新移民， 也有小孩在上学而父母在国内的。学生众多，高三约887人。69% Asian and 18% white. 2010年有1 for Harvard, 2 for MIT, 3 for Princeton, 3 for Stanford, and 2 for Yale.Walnut and Diamond Bar是华人东区名校，不过我没能找到爬藤数据。Parlos Verdes离华人中心区较为远，华人较不熟悉，Peninsula High 2010年有580高三学生，39% Asian and 45% Caucasian，6 for Harvard, 5 for MIT, 5 for Princeton, 10 for Stanford, and 3 for Yale.整体而言我有以下观察：华人占多数的高中名校，以Whitney High, San Marino High, and Arcadia High 为代表，1。似乎爬藤比例并不高，与国内的名校如人大附中爬北清差距较大。2。过去十年似乎爬藤有滑落趋势。 原因是什么呢？我有以下猜测：1.藤校一般较注重综合素质如领袖能力和社区服务，又讲究学生的独特性如某方面的特殊才能（体育，艺术，研究），会不会是我 们华人家长太注重成绩(GPA and SAT)，而忽略了全面发展？2。种族因素。可能顶级私立大学就是不想招太多亚裔？请大家讨论。! r2 s# ^' w8 d) F
