[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kid went to a CTCL, where she emerged as one of the best students in her science classes (TBH-she had not stood out at her W high school/Montgomery County). That resulted in her being noticed by her teachers. They wrote her recommendations that helped her secure prestigious internships. She won a scholarship selected by faculty that counted her as one of their most promising Bio majors. Not sure how much of this was maturing/confidence, but I think the big fish/small pond phenomenon that Gladwell talks about benefitted her. [/quote] Just wanted to say Brava to your kid![/quote]
