[quote=Anonymous]We opted out of the rat race very early. Let DS participate in whatever he wanted, discontinued if not interested and he still ended up at one of HYP with no hooks. He is a good student and we knew he would get into college. We did not bother even thinking of college until middle of 10th grade. Then we heard some tips from his high school counselor presentation things that are important for colleges, passed that info to son who promptly ignored it. The most worry we had was to keep him on track to submit all things by due dates in senior year. If you do not need to get into T30, the stress level is vastly lower. All the stress we experienced is mostly around meeting due dates. [/quote]
