Not entirely sure I get your question, but here is a stab at it. There really isn't one best school, and choosing a school is really partly a match between you and the college. All other things being equal, though, you want to go to the most prestigious college/university possible. This isn't meant to be "elitist" but I do think that having a great academic pedigree gives you more options about where you are likely to be hired to teach later on as a professor.

My family comes from Ireland but I was raised in Brooklyn NY.  I grew up having the greatest repect for hard honest work and  good education.  I was raised to respect my elders and even though I'm a woman, to give up my seat on the bus for pregnant ladies.  I was born with old world values and new world ambition.  I wouldn't have it any other way.

Yes I do.  How do I know?  Because of the way they speak and the things they speak of.\n\nBecause they can understand anything you tell them or ask them.  Who are they?  One was my own dad.  He was not an 'educated' person, but he had a very high position in a world wide business.  He invented some things that are still in use.\n\nOthers are people I have met and people I know right now.  High intelligence doesn't have anything to do with degrees or books or certificates.  It is either developed or ignored.\nBut it is always there, no matter what - or what is 'done' or not done  about it.

My child was born out of wedlock.  We aren't your typical family, as one might think of.  A mom,dad, siblings, etc.  We are a family, a dedicated family.  We are a strong close knit family, my child and I.  We are doing well.  I am doing well by my child and she is doing well by me.  Love overcomes all.

It's a tie between my mom and dad.  Their leadership for me cannot be beat.\n\nFrom them, I learned survival skills through thick and thin, through rough and smooth, through tough and easy.  \n\nMy mom and dad have always had wise ways of saying, "NO."  I mean after they finished, I felt like I was sooo glad to have had the conversation.  They claim it was the "school of hard knocks" that taught them best.  My hat is off to them.  Thanks Mom and Dad!

I want to be in the military. And that stuff that one person said about not being educated is so not true. I have the 3rd highest GPA in my school and my parents are more than happy to pay for college, its the fact that our country needs our help right now that i want to join. and that person who said that is just on of the countless Americans who take our freedom and our way of life for granted. I AM WITH YOU ALL THE WAY!! I think its great that you want to join

My parents are chinese, and they said that they learn math and science a lot more than the rest of the world, i'd say a few grades more. they also learn english as a second language, since it's the second most spoken lang(madarin chinese is the first) and they learn ahead because there aren't as many colleges to accept everyone, so the parents push hard to be one of the not-so-many selected

Perhaps it depends what circle you are looking it.  I have known several parents who chose to homeschool their children and the parents were skilled professionals with college educations and most had advanced degrees.\n\nThey developed a healthy curriculum to educate their children;  The kids excelled in their studies and still enjoyed exposure to other peers through extracurricular activities despite not being schooled under 'routine' circumstances.

nothing wrong with getting the best education you can.. Believe you me, you will thank you parents later.. \n\nbetter you get a good education that will allow you a better job in your adult life and the ability to have a good life, enjoy vacations and the stuff that money can buy.. than have a good summer now and end up working for chump change at McD's for the rest of your life because you haven't got the education to get a good job.\n\nKnowledge is power!

Humans have to be given the chance to excel. There are many contributing factors to this. Try looking into their socio-economic backgrounds - are their parents smart, did they provide love and support needed to excel, are they repeating the only thing they know and that is their family history? It's all about socialisation.

No. It's income biased. Those whose parents have a higher income tend to go to better school. That's a fact. I grew up in the projects so I know. This also shouldn't be an excuse. You can get a good education in these areas too. You just have to want it badly.
