[quote=Anonymous]I'm not surprised that admissions officers would be more impressed by a kid who plowed through a mediocre or bad public school and came out with great math and writing schools. As opposed to a similar kid who was educated in a private school greenhouse where the teachers were uniformly great, the peers were equally motivated, and the expectations were always high. Colleges' ultimate goal is to graduate kids who will go on to do great things. The kid with "grit" is more likely to do that than a kid who has been coddled.[/quote]
