[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Keep in mind that a kid may not be as well prepared for college coming from a smaller state or rural district. I grew up in Ohio, so middle of the pack overall on public education, maybe slightly above average. I went to one of our large state non-flagships for college. I was shocked at how some of my classmates had zero AP classes offered at their high school, or maybe just 1 or 2. Their math classes stopped at pre-Calc for seniors. It was particularly hard for kids going into a STEM major. [/quote] That was me. My high school classes had the right titles, but first year classes at a NESAC were so hard that I gave up on a math major. [/quote]
