[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If your DCs are the type who have succeeded at a pressure cooker high school and ended up at a rigorous college (think JHU, CMU, Princeton, Swarthmore, Georgia tech, UIUC), were/are they happy? Did they eventually get burned out? Do you wish they experienced a more balanced campus life and waited until at least grad school to be so serious? [/quote] My kid is at this type of school, and is happy because they don’t find it stressful, or too serious. Instead they are finding that there are lots of opportunities to do cutting edge things, so they are excited to be there and try everything out. They also have made many friends, so that makes it fun.[/quote]
