What bothers me about this is that we're now telling 15-year olds to make decisions that they won't understand the outcome of until they're 30. If they're lucky like me then they might manage to end up in a decent career despite having a mediocre degree from a mediocre school. But life has been tremendously unfair to most of the kids I went to high school with, and it's because our high school was mediocre and our parents didn't have the money to make up for it. I shudder to think what the future will be like for my friends' kids.
