[quote=Anonymous]We moved from a lower SES neighborhood to McLean. We thought about this gaming the system but we moved anyway. We are still in touch with some families. One kid who was equal or stronger than my kid is an average student at his high school and won’t get into VT or UVA. My kid is shooting for an Ivy and the lowest school he would go to is probably VT or UVA. Perhaps it may have been easier for my kid to get into Yale or Princeton from the lower SES school but he may not even be in a position to apply. We will never know.[/quote]
