The fact you have a professional resume to point to likely means you are moving society forward. HN seems to have a weirdly high bar for this, and perhaps a very low understanding of just how bad "general" classes at inner city schools are.

This would imply a greater focus must be made to ensure they have a chance at success yes?

I'm exceedingly skeptical that there's a low bar for "moving society forward" if the bar is "being in a gifted and talented program or equivalent". But if society is made up of a small set of overmen burdened by pulling the undermen across the finish line I absolutely would be an underman.

You don't seem to have the right perspective to talk about things at scale like this. Taking that personally is unfathomable.

Why is it unfathomable?
