[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous} The point is to keep every door open for you. I went to an average state school and 25 years later I still wish I hadn't let my grades drop off. It was immature thinking that led me to believe it didn't matter. It matters.[/quote] You have a valid point but students at competitive public & private high schools (& their parents) are probably at least as likely to overestimate the importance of attending an elite college as they are to underestimate it. Either can be quite detrimental.[/quote]
