[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We would choose one where the HS is NOT high performing (e.g., not Oakton, Langley, Mclean). Our kids will do well in any HS. They likely will be closer to top of the class at a mundane HS (because less competition) and that will help with college admissions. Most people on DCUM will disagree with this. [/quote] 100% with you here. And that is exactly how it panned out. The group of high performing kids at our low performing HS all got into Stanford, Carnegie-Mellon, Columbia, Duke, Penn, UVA, etc. They had a huge advantage.[/quote] But will they do well once they are there? Are they well prepared?[/quote]
