[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We had great experience w APS re class size. However my  kid who transitioned from Arlington public to private found he was ahead in math and behind in reading/writing.

My sibling who is a college professor says it’s shocking how many kids at selective colleges can’t write these days. APS should up it’s game in that regard. [/quote]

I’m the attorney who posted
 about our interns at Georgetown law. I feel that it is imperative that colleges begin communicating this to schools. Schools need to know that even their brightest aren’t prepared for college.[/quote]

How are you hiring?  Are they submitting writing from the law school year?

Are you looking beyond Georgetown or just relying on the reputation of the school? These students aren’t the brightest if they can’t write, no matter what school they come from.  The smartest lawyers I know didn’t come out of the big-name schools-  that’s just an anecdote of course.

Then there also must be something wrong with Georgetown's legal writing program. [/quote]
