[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I was surprised at a few of the kids who got into Big 3 schools from my DCs 8th grade class this year. Some of them are far from academically inclined. A few were siblings, a few were athletes but I have to think they will have a really hard time when they get hit with the work load. What do the Big 3 schools do with kids like this? Do they support them? Do they just try to get them through? I think a few of these families probably like the prestige factor over finding the right school for the kid and the kid is going to get slammed.[/quote] Not necessarily. There is a wide range of courses that kids can take even at Big 3. Not everyone takes AP courses or even the hardest courses offered.[/quote]
