NCS is stressful for some girls and not stressful at all for others.

Fit is very important for this school. [/quote]

Can you elaborate on this? What makes it stressful for some? [/quote]

The level of academics is a great fit for some and a very poor fit for others.  If your daughter enjoys learning and working very hard--3 hours of homework a night---GREAT fit.  I'm not being sarcastic.  
This is a dream school for this type of girls. 
For others, it's a poor fit.  There are easier schools.

It's not about intelligence--it's about diligence and being the kind of kid who just likes to study, study, study.  They exist and they thrive at NCS.

I have two daughters. One is absolutely thriving at NCS (high school).  She gets straight As.  She enjoys learning for learning's sake. 
We are sending our second daughter to a different school.  She needs more down time.  [/quote]

My DD is not like this even though she is academically gifted, she hates school work and gets stressed easily. She also suffers with anxiety and depression - having to rethink our choices for HS.
