CCer's: Cream of the crop or just your average applicant?

<p>For the Ivy League, average. But, overall, above average - cream of the crop. People here achieve much more than the majority of ...all high school students and tend to be at the top of their schools. At top colleges, most CCerss would be normal but for majority of the country, CCers are vastly above average.</p>

<p>CC'ers, for the most part, do not represent the average HS student. Definitely cream of the crop.</p>

<p>Let me put it to you this way: if CCers represented average applicants, there is no way anyone would ever freak out over America's education system the way they do now.</p>

<p>I remember seeing a chance thread the first time I ever wandered over here. Someone else got a 2180 on the SATs, which is exactly equal to my score, and someone told the poster they should definitely retake the test. I was traumatized! It took me two months to come back and be sure I wouldn't be eaten alive.</p>
