[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]All from his own hard work...[/b] "Cedrick, the son of a Salvadoran maintenance worker and a Filipina nurse, had scored perfectly on his Advanced Placement Calculus exam. Of the 302,531 students to take the notoriously mind-crushing test, he was one of only 12 to earn every single point....from Lincoln High, a school of about 1,200 students in the heavily Latino Lincoln Heights neighborhood." http://www.latimes.com/local/lanow/la-me-ln-calculus-wiz-20160127-story.html[/quote] Congratulations to this kid on his achievement. However, op, it is always from the kids own hard work. No one can do the studying or the learning for any child who achieves without regard to income level. If you don't put forth the effort, you will not succeed. I say this as someone who has lived on both sides of the income spectrum. [/quote]
