[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just like a Nissan Versa is the only car worth it to some, others it's a Honda Civic and others it's a BMW or a Lamborghini, it's subjective.  Worth it to one person doesn't mean worth it to someone else.

We have one at an OOS flagship with merit who loves it there and another at a $$$ private where we are full play and they love it.  For us, happy, kids who are learning inside the classroom and out, both are worth it.[/quote]

Np. Do you think kids really know what will make them happy when they apply to schools? Seems like such a young age to have it all figured out. Many kids switch majors etc [/quote]

DP:

My youngest (also my most academic) knew they wanted engineering, and specifically Chem Engineering. Approaching senior year and hasn't waivered any.  But They are the type we knew it would be some type of STEM/Engineering no matter what (Kid's first class they had to "study for at all" was AP Calc BC---not for AB, AP Chem/AP Bio/AP Physics Mechanics, etc)  And yes, we let them pick the best school for them (not the cheapest either by $42K/year)
