[quote=Anonymous]I'm not sure I yet concede that older kids do better, but for argument's sake I will concede it here. Age is 1 factor, and there are many other things that also made a kid do better including socioeconomic status, parents' education level and even higher birth weight (https://mobile.nytimes.com/2014/10/12/upshot/heavier-babies-do-better-in-school.html). I stressed about sending my summer bday kid on time (we did send on time) but in my heart of hearts I believe the same kid born a few days before the cut off and goes on time would have the same outcome if born a few days later and missed the cutoff.
