To those who went to East Coast prep schools: What was your experience like?

Curious since there seems to be such a big correlation with East Coast boarding school culture and finance.

What were your experiences like? In what ways did your experience justify/denounce media stereotypes of the typical experience? How do you think taking that pipeline to where you are now put you in a more advantageous position?

No detail too small.
