<p>I used to go to a rigorous magnet school that has blue ribbon and gold certificate recognition. </p>
<p>My first question is, should I mention this in the additional info section? Or should i leave that up to the adcoms to figure out? I am at a disadvantage in terms of ranking because the classes at the magnet school were VERY tough.</p>
<p>Also, when my transcript was transferred, many of my previous honors classes were weighed as regular classes in my new school. When I asked why, my current guidance counselor said that if I took honors classes not offered at the new school, it would be unfair to the students attending there. So four of my honors classes from my old school have been weighed like a regular non-honors class. (I felt cheated but what can i do?) Should i mention this on the additional info section also? </p>
