<p>I attend Choate Rosemary Hall and am a third year junior. At home, I would have attended a pretty decent, however, somewhat average/mediocre school, but I'm sure would have been among the top students as well as athletes. I am the Varsity soccer captain now, but in terms of academics, my GPA has been around the 2.7 - 3.0 range since last sophomore winter. I'm very confused and wondering whether staying at home would have been better; for colleges to see me high in the class rank, captain of soccer there as well, and doing clubs (ex: band/music, which i cant really do here b/c of time pressures). anyone with similar experiences or just any advice, please post. thank you.</p>
<p>It doesn't matter that much whether you go to a public or private school - you can do amazingly or mess up royally at either one.</p>
<p>I dont really know much but i think that many the private schools have more of a priviledge than the public ones...but dont really know if its true..</p>
