Hello,
My son currently is in 8th grade and has a decent academic performance (straight A, qualified for American Invitational Mathematics Examination (AIME)) but not really good at social skills. He is supposed to go to Irvine High School based on our residence location. He heard from friends that University High is better in terms of academic, so he asked me to apply for University High. Maybe, just by luck, he got approved it. I am leaning on keeping him at Irvine High School because he has friends, near home, and probably less stress for him. However, he is leaning on wanting to go to University High but not much (60% for UNI vs 40% for IRVINE), mostly because of the better reputation and more clubs. Please let me know about thoughts about UNI vs. IRIVINE. Thanks.
