Wow, Ren, I can't imagine dealing with that system. It sounds like they are locked into a course bound for a particular college starting in preschool!

Things are much more fluid here. We may not even live in this state in a couple of years. Private schools of any kind are beyond our means...

Yours sounds like a completely different world to me. I guess it's a good thing we don't aspire to Harvard smile It sounds like the kids would never be accepted even if we could afford it!
