Answer 1

Tamar gave good advice - of the three Science would be my choice.  I was admitted to Tech but did not attend - huge mistake.  If I could do it all over again I would go.  (Did not apply to Science because it was too far away.)

Your question did not indicate a preference for a religious affiliation.  My wife graduated Spellman, in the Bronx.  Great school, a flagship high school.

As to the private prep schools - your current school is the best source of information on which school in Manhattan you can get into and match to your current experience.  I don't know your school and don't know what gossip girlish is.

Answer 2

I know you asked for private schools, but the best public schools;

Stuyvesant

Bronx Science

Brooklyn Tech

And yes, those give you great chances for Ivy League.
