<p>That is what I meant by experience base. If the college is familiar with students from your high school, and you know some of the students from your high school going to that college, you can get a much better idea of what kind of grade average, in what kind of courses, is enough to get into that college. That is much harder to figure out if no one at that college has heard of your high school before, which is not your issue.</p>
