[quote=Anonymous]I think NOVA parents forget that students elsewhere all over Virginia are very aware they must compete hard for every spot at state universities against NOVA kids. We live in Appalachia (but used to live in NOVA) and the kids out here are working their butts off to take twelve or more AP and DE courses, going to state governor's schools (just like TJ, only they might commute two hours one way every day), doing high school and college summer school courses, multiple ECs, and have the same tiger moms as everywhere else who might roll up in their Range Rovers. Rural VA kids putting up 4.06s weighted, just like your kids, and in smaller towns, education is the big ticket that laser focuses the mind. Education is taken very seriously out here in rural VA and our kids are putting up the numbers and taking nothing for granted. They know exactly why and where they are applying.[/quote]
