[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The rigor of the school doesn't matter just that you took the most rigorous courses available at your school. The Title 1 where I work always sends the top kids to elite colleges [/quote] This is completely wrong. Rigor of the school matters a huge amount. The Title 1 school may send a couple kids to elite colleges but TJ many times that number to top colleges. The percentage that Sidwell or Philips Exeter send to elite colleges is completely different from an average public high school. Yes yes, students are judged within the context of the school, but their school is also judged within the context of other schools.[/quote] Hm. Are you trying to say that if you took a B+ public school kid with a 1200 SAT and sent him to Sidwell or Philips Exeter, he’d get into an elite college?[/quote]
