<p>He assumes that everyone had an education in America… My family came to America when I was very young, and they did not have any education in english, and thus had to work in a low-wage job trying to feed our family. </p>
<p>My mother yet, in her country, was a very intelligent and high scoring women in her college, and was practicing medicine. </p>
<p>So my mother had to support me since my parents were divorced. </p>
<p>Just because you are low-waged doesn’t mean you’re not intelligent, especially if you are an immigrant from another nation. In America, an American Education is what mostly can make you a middle class/above.</p>
<p>Those who did not have this chance, are getting a fair one at QB. Ignorance is bliss for some people.</p>
<p>There is a very big difference between a 30k income and a 80k income family. A family with a 30k income can’t travel anywhere, can’t afford a tutor, can’t afford a private education, can’t even afford basic school supplies and books needed to study for a standardized test such as an SAT/ACT. Yet those with an 80k income can afford at the least school supplies or tutoring. This can make a huge difference in qualification of students. </p>
<p>That gap is what QB tries to close. QB doesn’t accept low-achieving students from low-income. They accept high achieving students who went PAST that barrier. That is the extra boost you get. Well deserved as well.</p>
