[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Where these HS stand with US News has absolutely no bearing on kids getting into college. Colleges just look at the course rigor and student performance. In fact, coming from a competitive HS can hurt kids as they stand out less among their classmates. [/quote] I find that very difficult to believe that a school in Boondock, StateX and TopOfTheList, Virginia will be treated equal on a college admissions board. I think it's more likely that some schools will use the rank as a weighting factor on the GPA as a possible cutoff, since Boondock straight-A may not be the same as a TopOfTheList A's and B's?[/quote]
