[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What I mean is that Wilson kids do have some different strengths - not sure if these matter to the Ivy’s but it is a good way to add some color and personality to the incoming freshman college class. Wilson kids are very street smart. They have a good appreciation and understanding of diversity. The successful ones are very resourceful and good at advocating for themselves. The ones without private college counselors have to navigate the maze of college admissions by themselves. The high achieving kids at Wilson may not have as much advanced content knowledge as the high achieving kids at good suburban and private high schools but they are very tenacious and driven to succeed. [/quote] This is definitely true of the Wilson kids I know, including my child who is a senior.[/quote] +1 Parent of Wilson graduate and Wilson junior.[/quote]
