Is it better to go to a public high school or a private high school?

Question:i will be going to high school next year, and i have to pick which high school i have to go to. if i choose to go to a private high school, i'm going to have to apply and take an entrance exam and tuition and everything. if i go to a good public school, i might not have all of the same benefits as going to a private school would give me, but it would give me more variety in classes that i would want to take. i'm so torn between the two!

Answers:
hey, well I go to a private school, it's quite different. the teachers are actually willing to help you if you don't understand something. and you will have the same amount of friends in private school as public school. The entrance exam is hard and requires preparation. however if you do get into your desired private school then it is well worth it. the last factor is cost. an average private school will run between $10,000 - $25,000 a year. if you can afford it however it is very well worth it. I am glad I chose private school.
Well you will have the potential to get a better education in a private high school. However, if you live in an area with decent public schools, going to a private high school is mostly a waste of money. Really you get out of an education what you put into it. Also, I'd imagine people at private schools are elitest and unfriendly.
The great thing about public school is the variety: people, classes, activities, sports, etc. Depending on which private school you are considering, all of those things could be severely limited.
In my opinion, go to public high school! You can make more friends, have more choices of sports and classes etc...
Well,
I go to a private school. Private schools have a bit better education... It gives you great opportunities for like asking for a job and all that... But public schools gets you more friends as well... So i say go to a private school...
