[quote=Anonymous]SSSAS is no different from any school. Period. I went to a public school in a small town in the South, and pp could be describing my school. That's life. Furthermore, is it a surprise that a school that has a large percentage of well-to-do kids will have a large percentage of well-to-do kids honored as high-achieving? Is the pp alleging that these kids were not otherwise deserving? The pp seems to think it is unfair because there are kids that are doing well because they have advantages (tutors, trainers, etc -- and, by the way, I didn't know anyone at my public high school who took the SAT who didn't do private SAT test prep). I'm just surprised that someone would reject public school, go through the admissions process for one of these competetive schools, write big checks every year, and then complain about how life isn't fair because some people have more advantages than others.
