[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Most in the industry actually consider this high school to be the top school in the nation.  31% economically disadvantaged, 33% black/Hispanic.  Oh and 55% female.

It is a reflection on the poster mainly and makes it clear that their opinions should carry no weight. Further, it makes me really wonder if these changes are positive since they may result in overall smarter kids who just have fewer resources to devote to prep.[/quote]

How do you know if they are smarter kids?  Usually we test them to find out.  That has actually worked really well for a very long time throughout history.[/quote]

Because they were top in their respective schools not just kids from a wealthy school whose parents could afford prep classes.[/quote]
