[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP your comments about private schools grading being tough are interesting. My DC is at a top ivy after MCPS. DC says that tons of kids there are from private schools, and they struggle with science. They write very well though. Public schools might grade easier but somehow they push the kids in science more. Maybe public schools entice their students to study sciences because of easier grading? [/quote] Both public schools and private schools can vary widely. There are some privates stronger in reading/writing than math, but there also are some public schools which are the same. MCPS and FCPS both have many parents pushing STEM, so those systems have much stronger STEM courses than a rural public school (e.g, Louisa County or Craig County) will have.[/quote]
