[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]“Once they get to college everybody is the same no matter how "hard" your HS was.“ This has not be my DCs’ experiences. They went to one of the “hard” HS in the DCUM area and they both found out how well prepared they were for their classes and that not everyone in their classes had the same preparation. They have had a relatively easier time of it than their classmates coming from less rigourous high schools. [/quote] +1 I came to college from a rural high school where we just didn't have the offerings and rigor of schools like a large suburban public HS or private high school and it definitely showed. I felt pretty lost at first and resentful that many of my peers had academic experiences that I did not. (Thanks to some amazing mentors and such I eventually succeeded, but to say there is no difference between students at college once you're there is not true. It's just not.)[/quote]
