[quote=Anonymous]I grew up lower middle class. SAHM. I got into HSYP and did well there. The kids who got into schools like that back then were all self-starters, naturally talented academically, and had tremendous self-discipline. You couldn't game the system like you can today, especially with GPAs. These were truly the elite kids. It's not like that today. In addition, your typical directional state school today is academically on par with a mid-level high school in the 1980s. Everyone there now is getting Bs and As, which isn't how it worked back in the day. A college degree isn't what it used to be. [/quote]
