[quote=Anonymous]The grading systems between the top private schools and public school are DIFFERENT, not better or worse. This point is always hammered to death on this board. College reps consider your GPA in the context of YOUR school. I have heard them say this directly many times. The argument between people about public versus private in infantile. Yes, it is true that a B/B+ student at a private might get into the same college as an A/A- student at public (all else being equal) - because the grading systems are DIFFERENT, not because the private school kid is getting a leg up.... Worry about your child, and not how all the other schools set their GPA's.[/quote]
