[quote=Anonymous]I am a liberal Democrat. That being said, the main people who focus on these rankings are FOTB tiger moms who know nothing so this is their only source of info for their child. You can spot them from a mile away at college fairs, tours, etc. When looking at high schools they are the ones who ask cringey questions in front of everyone about college exmissions, and they ask similar questions on college tours. Bless their souls for caring so much about creating a better life for their kids - I wish more people cared this much as it is much better than the opposite extreme, which is way too common. But they don't know what they don't know. And they walk around with a well-worn copy of these rankings.[/quote]
