Huh?

Wow, Private. Too bad you can't fix your kind of stupid. First of all, the 93-100/90-100 A thing is not universal across every public school and every private school in the state. The Missouri Legislature doesn't set that standard, the individual school district, its administration and school board set that standard. I went to a public high school in St. Louis and an A at my school was 94-100. An A/B was 87-93, A B was 82-87 and a B/C was 78-82. Getting an A at my school meant you had to get a 94 or above. Second, the larger the pool of students taking the SAT/ACT, the greater the likelihood of lower scores. I learned that in AP Statistics. Too bad you didn't take it. Private schools in general are filled with more students aiming for four-year colleges, so you would expect those standardized test scores to be higher. And yet my public school had a higher average ACT/SAT even with a larger pool of students taking the test. And third, only a little private school biotch from St. Louis would think that rush revolves around suburban St. Louis kids. Let's remember the entire rest of the state sends their students to Mizzou, too. In case you are not aware, there are scores of other cities and states that send their students to Mizzou, particularly the Journalism School. So if you feel bad about exposing your ignorance, just call daddy. He'll deposit another hundo in your account this week to make it all better.
