[quote=Anonymous]There is like 2 years where your high school resume matters in life and even then people overstate the difference they make. Yes you need to accelerate math for a handful of professions but after that all you’re showing is adherence to the rat race. Sad fact is a gentleman B student in all grade level classes from a family with resources will out achieve most students with limited resources no matter their academic excellence. Since will all know that the formula for success is multi faceted, I’ll never know why parents put so much pressure on students to excel on one aspect that really doesn’t offer significant reward. What’s the old joke, what do you call someone who graduated last in their class at a below avg medical school? Doctor [/quote]
