[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I didn’t bring it up in the conversation with the teacher — I think thinking about this stuff that young is basically stupid. I have been surprised by how young the kids are when they start worrying about it. My kid only knows where I went to University because the kids asked her to ask me in fourth grade. They told her she was lucky she had a double legacy. I told her to learn her multiplication tables.

If college admissions is why you are there, the numbers don’t tell the whole story, and you need to know that to play and win the game.
You can believe in the integrity of the Ivy League admissions process all you want, but that’s not going to win you a slot. Ask questions, be quiet, listen to people talk. This stuff is pretty easy to suss out. It is something TT actively discuss and complain about if they think you are safe to vent to. Some embrace it as a fundraising tool, some secretly hate it, but it’s an active part of K12 life.

You can tell your kid’s place in class because they put out a list. It’s called an honor roll. [/quote]

Do any of the TT schools do honor roll or class rank or anything like that?  I was not aware that any did. [/quote]
