If kid is worried about getting weeded out, kid doesn’t belong. Go study humanities or something else.

Year in and year out, it’s the kids never thought about being weed out ended up being weed out.

Public school 4.0 kids with 16 APs get destroyed left and right at these top schools every year.  They’ve never been prepped properly for college rigor.  [/quote]

Just public school kids? Private school kids are all able to breeze through? You're saying this just to make you feel good about the money you spent on privates. The truth is it depends on how talented the kid is. The same 1550 kid, whether they go through the public or private school systems, will essentially be the same person capability-wise. The same person, whether with a 4.0/1550/16 APs at a public or a 3.8-3.9/1550 at a private, will perform roughly the same --- excelling or getting destroyed --- when they get to top schools. It's the kid's talent that matters most.[/quote]
