[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The main problem with the K to 12 model is at grade 9 only the highest quality candidates enter that are hand picked by admissions. This is great for the school but where does that leave your average kid who has been there since K when applying for college? Bottom of class rankings.[/quote] Yet those bottom of the class Big 3 graduates are still virtually assured admission at most Top 50 to Top 100 colleges, whereas that is no longer a sure thing coming from a public high school. [/quote] That was never a sure thing in public high school. The kids at the bottom, as you put it, go to community college or don’t go at all. That’s not comparing apples to apples at all. [/quote]
