[quote=Anonymous]yes, colleges know but the kids getting into top colleges from NCS, Sidwell, etc are getting close to perfect grades despite going to NCS and Sidwell. There are a dozen or so who get very, very high grades each year and these are the kids going on to top colleges, unhooked. If you're not getting straight As or very close to it you're out of running for the Ivy league or similar. I think most parents don't realize this until it's too late. There is a this layer of kids at these top privates who DO manage to grind out top grades in top rigor classes. They work like maniacs but they do it. [/quote]
