The book explores the significant achievement and opportunity gaps in the U.S. education system, particularly how socioeconomic factors hinder capable youth from realizing their academic potential. It highlights the role of post-secondary institutions in perpetuating class structures and emphasizes the importance of early intervention during middle school to foster college awareness among disadvantaged students. By examining the disparities in college knowledge among these students, the book advocates for strategies to empower them to overcome barriers to higher education.
