[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]I see a substantial difference between student abilities coming out of private schools and out of public schools (esp. in the ability to read/interpret, think analytically, and in level of confidence). [/quote] Do you believe this is due to “good teaching” at private schools, or is it selection bias (smarter parents make money, have smarter kids, and can afford private schools)?[/quote] OP here, back, I think (assertion!) it's more curricular freedom, more emphasis on deep reading, analytical reading, "reading the classics" (which can, in a way, just be careful attention to reading texts that are complex and make you think, struggle, reflect, etc., which is precisely why they seem to then excel at doing those things in college!). [/quote] How about writing skills in private vs public students?[/quote]
