The top 10% thing seems odd. Isn't it conceivable that the top 10% in one school district/one school is still lower than the top 30% in another? So you could be really screwed if you're in a better district?

I read an article a couple of years ago that pretty much highlighted that problem. Some parents even went so far as to enroll their kids in lower performing schools or districts to ensure their child would be in the top 10%.
