[quote=Anonymous]Ok. I will answer. Public school kid had about 2 hours per night freshman year and three hours sophomore year. Average level of effeciency, not a perfectionist. Rigorous courseload. Played two sports and ec's were not super time intensive. Did not stay up until midnight until junior year. So i agree that junior year is variable. He seemed to get his act together junior year. Child at big 3. Sports requirement was a total pain. Did not get home until 6 or 7 every night. Was a more of an arts person, singing and drama, and this was very time consuming. Arts kids at public do not have to do the sports component. Child two had more work, probably fifty percent more. More writing, more reading. But child two was extremely fast. Many stories of other kids staying up until 11 or 12 from freshman year. I would hesitate to send a kid that was slow or less organized to one of the more intense school ie Sidwell, GDS, NCS/STA.[/quote]
