准备搬到芝加哥西郊，小孩再开学就上高中。在家里反复研究芝加哥西郊的高中。 Hinsdale Central High不错，在usnews里全美排名332， 但是离上班的地方开车要一 个小时。看了一下Naperville的三所高中，在usnews里的排名都不高。Central是1059 名，North是977名，Neuqua是959名。附近的Glenbard West High 还排名445。 不是说中国人多的地方学校排名都高吗？为什么Naperville的高中排名都很低呢？
This was done by computing a College Readiness Index based on the school's AP participation rate – the number of 12th-grade students in the 2014-2015 academic year who took at least one AP test before or during their senior year, divided by the total number of 12th-graders at the school – and how well the students performed on those tests.
The latter part, called the quality-adjusted AP participation rate, is the number of 12th-grade students in the 2014-2015 academic year who took and passed *** received an AP score of 3 or higher *** at least one AP test before or during their senior year, divided by the number of 12th-graders at that school.

: 中国人多的地方学校排名都高吗？为什么Naperville的高中排名都很低呢？
这样的问题，来问??
获得基础的大学培训吗？
其它的一些排名各有其它因素决定，比如州统考的成绩，比如师生比例等。
naperville的几个学校都是大学校，学生比较多，选修AP的比例并不是很高，所以
USNEWS的排名不高。
中国人多的地方只决定好学生的成绩，不会改变bottom学生的兴趣。
上好大学，最后还是孩子自身实力和家长实力综合的结果。父母是藤校毕业的，肯定有利。孩子自己出类拔萃的，也不会被淹没。
在一个竞争比较激烈的学校，有好的一面有不利的一面。好的是从小经过严格竞争，将来到大学到社会都比较容易适应。不利的当然就是有些机会在竞争中失去。
但是，有些学校，连给你参与竞争的机会都没有。比如数理化竞赛学校根本就不参与。你是鸡头其实也没多大用。
