[quote=Anonymous]Girls mature faster and have a better appreciation for how to present themselves to colleges. Expectations for boys are just so low. I have a kid (with ADHD and dysgraphia) who scores super high on standardized tests and yet teachers gloss over his Bs and even Cs (in MCPS where grade inflation is rampant). He is far more capable. I can’t get through to him that that’s not going to get him into a competitive college. We do boys a disservice when we don’t expect more from them and prepare them for what’s next.[/quote]
