[quote=Anonymous]Totally FWIW: My child attends a no-kidding low-income, small rural high school. Sure, it's a huge advantage to have educated, employed parents (or just two parents at home, full stop). But it's no freebie for college admissions for the small number of better-off kids. The education is, in fact, much worse than what you'd get in a suburban school. Not just far fewer APs, etc, although that's true. But the plain education is worse. Even the honors student don't read many books, don't write many papers, don't learn much math. I'm sure my child will get *some* preference for college admission. But it really is a greater challenge, even with educated parents. Don't do this as a strategic choice is all I can say![/quote]
