How would this help students from low income areas or students from all but the most well funded public and private high schools? IMO, it would make things drastically worse. Students really don't get to pick their high school if they're attending public schools, that is based entirely on where you live. Low income families by virtue of being low income cannot afford to live in wealthier areas with better public schools. By the same token, they cannot afford to send their kids to expensive private schools |

I'm suggesting that you have to be within the top 5% class GPA to get in. So, some students may actually have a lower GPA, but still have a chance to get in, because they were in the top 5% of their class.
I'm also saying that students don't have to have the resources to take SAT prep courses, because they would only have to do well at their own schools.
If the public or private school was not accredited for possible acceptance into an Ivy League school, parents should know that and be able to do something about it, and so should the state or county.
