[quote=Anonymous]This is an anecdote, but might still be useful. Two years ago DD had a public school friend who graduated in the top 10 at her NOVA public. DD had several classmates that same year at her private who attended the same college as the public school friend. The private school friends coasted at William and Mary, but the public school's mother confided to me that her DD was struggling with the workload. All these girls were smart, but the girls from the private were just used to so much more work. As a public school kid we used to make fun of all the homework the private schools had, but at Georgetown, I felt I was underprepared in time management compared to my private school floormates of which there were many. I caught up, but that first year was a struggle.[/quote]
