[quote=Anonymous] If that is the case and her logic is correct, may i suggest everyone on the wrong portion of Farragut St to move to the right portion of the Farragut St. Instance 200+ points added to your kid's SAT. (no other action is required) However, if one does not want to move because the house is $200k more expansive....(or ~$1100 per month extra for a 30 year mortgage). Well, the family as a whole need to decide if it wants to pay $1100 more a month for an extra 200 point difference in SAT, which according to this person "can dramatically affect college acceptances and then future work opportunities" If I have only 1 kid, maybe not. I will go to the private school. If I have 2 to 3 kids, it may make sense to move. People is free to decide which of the following is more important: (1) leasing a new car and have an extra monthly payment (2) sending money to my country every month (3) kid's education and pay extra monthly mortgage [quote=Anonymous]Here is one of secret that not that many people know and she revealed it: "Depending on a family's exact address on Farragut Street, students would either attend the coveted "W" school of Walter Johnson or the stigmatized Down County Consortium School of Albert Einstein. Students attending Walter Johnson score, on average, 200 points higher on the SAT than students attending Einstein. A 200-point difference can dramatically affect college acceptances and then future work opportunities."[/quote][/quote]
