[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Wonder if this helps explains the achievement gap everyone is talking about recently. The families who can pa $80-$100 per hour the kids are doing fine. The rest perhaps not so much. Just a thought.[/quote] There is definitely an achievement gap for some because of the tutors. If you have a kid with a tutor since K, and that kid got into HGC, then it's an [b]unfair advantage to the kid who didn't have the benefit of a tutor. [/b]Could the child have gotten into HGC without the tutor? Who knows. However, there are kids that do get into HGC with no tutor or prep tests. I think these are the truly gifted or at least advanced ones.[/quote] sorry, meant to state "unfair advantage to the kid who DID get in". blah.[/quote]
