[quote=Anonymous]I was from a small town public high school and went to a highly selective college. Nobody from my high school had ever gone ther or even applied there before as far as we knew (it was a few states away and most kids stayed in state). I can't say for sure, but I think that helped. Ultimately, it always comes down to the student and not so much the school. With strong SATs, good grades in tough classes, and some kind of passion for something, a student will be a good candidate for most colleges no matter what high school they come from. As for maximizing options, there are a lot better things you could do to make your child more competitive than switching high schools.[/quote]
