oh boy another genius this place is loaded with them. too bad all your teachers thought you were an idiot. you should have went to better schools. i didnt realize if your teachers think your an idiot you can be labeled a genius
I wouldn't call anyone I met so far a genius (inclusive). The point I was trying to make…Very little correlation between what a teacher thinks a student can/can't do versus what a person can accomplish. And second, "average test scores" don't mean didly, because the average is so low to begin with. Some of these standardize tests, such as an SAT math is a joke. Teachers are just one of many data points. And considering that the average american stink at math, I take what a "teacher" says about someone's math skills with a grain of salt. As far as going to a 'better" schools. I went to a public school that was as good as it was going to get in california, short of private schools. Where I went, unfortunately, the student parking lot looked a lot nicer than the faculty, similar to what you would see in Torrey Pines HS, only much worse. Furthermore, I'm not convinced sending kids to private school really helps if parents aren't going to be involved. Several folks I knew went to public schools and ended up in Harvard,Stanford,Berkeley,Upenn,etc.
