[quote=Anonymous]Am I not supposed to want my kid to be at the top of his class? Class rank is important for his future opportunities, and class rank is by definition zero sum. I don’t want bad outcomes for anyone, but some things, like class rank, are by definition inequitable. So, what’s the solution? Do we stop using class rank? Do we stop capping class sizes for APs? Some of these solutions need to come from the schools and the colleges, because “nice white parents,” Tiger moms, and the Obamas aren’t the ones setting these standards, so it is illogical to blame them for wanting their children to abide by those standards.[/quote]
