[quote=Anonymous]Wow. I went to a crappy public school, was at the top of my class, went to an Ivy League school and did very well. I think if you have common sense and didn't have helicopter parents coaching you all throughout school, you can do great in college if you did well in high school. Many of my peers were just used to having their parents monitor everything for them--they were from upper middle class backgrounds. I was working class and the first in my family to go to college, so no one checked my homework for me, made sure i was taking the right classes, etc. [/quote]
