[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What high school? Because top of his class at a high FARMS high school IS a hook. [/quote] Huh? A much higher percentage of the class at high income schools gets into T10’s than at FARMS schools. [/quote] Higher percentage of the class. Not higher stats. Equal resumes from Langley and Wakefield- Wakefield kid gets a boost. Colleges like to think they’ve lifted someone from poverty even if it’s not true. So the most privileged kids in a less privileged zip code benefit. It’s messed up but that’s the way it is. [/quote]
