My guess is that there are anomalies but that the aggregate data is clear. I also went to both public and private school. I went to a highly regarded public school system. Whe I went to private school in eighth grade I was WAY behind. Smaller classrooms, more dedicated students etc. Even the "bad kids," we're smart.

I'm a fan of the the multiple intelligences school of thought, that test scores aren't everything, and everyone has things they're good at, as well as things they're not so good at. You can't judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree. I have no doubt about your intelligence. =)Even the "bad kids," we're smart.
