[quote=Anonymous]My kids go to a somewhat competitive public high school on the west coast and repeatedly I hear their friends in college are getting 4.0s at schools like Stanford and Berkeley. So our school seems to be preparing kids well. I went to one of the LACs mentioned (from a public school in Midwest) and it was tough, tons of reading. I didn’t see a big difference in performance among my friends, some from regular public hs like me, and others from fancier privates like Philips Exeter, Andover, Harvard Westlake. But I’m sure there were private school kids who breezed through college as well as public school kids who did well. My smartest friend from college was from a non magnet public school in the Midwest. Econ major and professors hoping she would go into academia. She went to Wall Street lol [/quote]
