[quote=Anonymous]I went to an extremely crappy rural high school and went on to graduate with highest distinction at U.Va. and went to an ivy league law school, where I also did very well. It was helpful that I took an honors English comp class and a couple other (less helpful) college classes at my local nonselective state university while I was in high school. My best friend from the crappy high school went to a selective small liberal arts college and got a master's degree at an ivy league. He had more of an adjustment process when he got to college, but managed. I had my own bumps in the road transitioning to college, but for better or for worse, my problems were social, not academic.[/quote]
