[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The USC page is nuts. Crossing that off DC's list.[/quote] I understand your reaction, but it reads like it is pitched for kids from families for whom college is not an automatic thing, or kids at big high schools in which the guidance counselors may have hundreds and hundreds of students. The message "if you want to go to college you need to try hard in high school and start thinking about college as a goal" may sound redundant in the independent school world, but it would be news to many high school kids and their families. Just knowing that college is an expectation gives students an advantage over many others for whom it seems a mystery or an unattainable goal.[/quote]
