[quote=Anonymous]Don’t do it then. DS was not mature for his age and was not particularly compliant when it came to sticking to the usual formula for getting into the “top” schools, and our attempts to motivate him fell on deaf ears. His grades were good and he cared about school, just did not care that much about GPA and doing all the ECs. He did not have many ECs and hardly any volunteering or club participation. He pretty much just did his sport, and not even to the max. He did have some summer jobs related to his sport. It turned out fine. He has matured somewhat and is very excited about the SLAC he will attend next year. No rat race.[/quote]
