> Most boys have studied Latin and French for a couple of years before they arrive at the school. The curriculum at elite schools speaks to the investments made for these children outside school. Not just tutoring, but parental support for homework, etc. At the end of the day, neither Latin nor French is, per se, likely to matter one iota regarding aggregate success. People don't get wealthy by graduating with a degree in Classics or French Literature. What matters is what these things reflect.
