Colleges only look at what you did in high school, like your grades and SAT score.

Depends on which college. Alot of them want to see outside activities, i.e. sports, clubs, stuff like that.

Also, they do take into account what high school the applicant went to.

Some parents believe that the right preschool gets you into the right high school which gets you into the right college.

Kids, kids, kids...Dave is seeing the humor in the situation; making light of it; putting the situation in the context of his school experience as compared to his daughter's. He is being FUNNY. Don't over analyze...and if you find yourself doing so, just think about burping the theme of Gilligan's Island...
