[quote=Anonymous]I went to a mediocre public high school. From teaching at a top independent high school, I would say that the quality of education overall was higher. I taught my seniors as I did undergraduates at the Ivy League school I attended for my PhD. My colleagues were also great at exploring topics in depth and being creative in their curriculum. However, there were students who were more AP-test focused who wanted classes that were more closely aligned to the tests. Also, I have a sibling who went to Amherst (from our same mediocre public school) and she was a bit overwhelmed with how much better prepared her prep school friends were. [/quote]
