[quote=Anonymous]My two boys are getting straight As right now in FCPS. I don't consider them gifted, sure they are bright, but not gifted. They had the chance to go into all honors classes and said no (except for a couple of classes that they are interested in). They want to play sports, work semi-hard in high school, have a girlfriend, go out on the weekends, and then go to college and be happy. I seriously am not worried that they aren't going to get into an Ivy school. Not one exec I know in my job went to an Ivy. I seriously don't think it matters all that much when you get into the workforce...you'll either be successful, or not. I went to a state university and am almost at the top of the ladder in my organization, and I think that's common. [/quote]
