[quote=Anonymous]The types of practices the OP is describing are very common in some suburbs. As a matter of fact, a 'regular kid' can't compete with kids who are essentially "teams" of trainers, tutors, college planners, etc. THe lesson for the OP is, unfortunately, you can't afford to live where you live. IF you don't have enough money to give your daughter the advantages that her classmates have, then she won't be able to compete. When the teachers in your kids' school start aiming their teaching at the kids with tutors who have already seen all the material, when they start grading your kid's papers against the kids with the advantages, then the only solution is to move to somewhere where people can't afford all that infrastructure. THat is the only way to level the playing field and give your kid a fighting chance. [/quote]
