[quote=Anonymous]My DCs love U Chicago. They are focused kids who went to a private high school which was known for academic rigor, so Chicago is on par with what they expected. The nine week quarter is hard- they don’t lighten the content despite what a pp said- the professors cram it in. One DC got admitted to a class and access to an honors problem set the night before it was due, and pulled an all nighter to get it turned in (would have been a zero grade otherwise). Other DC was assigned an entire book to read overnight (tale of Genji) for class discussion the next day.it is what it is. But they also play a sport seriously and practice several times a week, travel to compete. and on weekends have time to see friends and go into the city for meals. One more thing- culture is to hear other opinions respectfully- you can have whatever opinion, but be prepared to defend it with data and logic and get trashed if you can’t. DCs love people can agree to disagree. [/quote]
