[quote=Anonymous]I think that many admissions offices would like to favor low-income smart kids from high poverty schools. However on the high school end, I think the experience is not there to drive a steady stream of students to competitive universities. Imagine the first one as DCPS vs MCPS. A low income DCPS might present more sympathetically than an MCPS school, generically. On the second one however the counselors in a DCPS know how to get kids into the pipeline regularly. So I think that it’s a wash. [/quote]
