[quote=Anonymous]I don't know of any capable, high-achieving high school student who ISN'T stressed-out. In public or private, for that matter! It's not a function of the school, it's a function of the student's and their family's awareness that it's difficult to find the "best-fit" college, and it's challenging to juggle academics with extra-curriculars. That's all. Then they get into college and feel better. Actually, I'll go even further: if you're not at least a little stressed out and aware of the challenges in high school, you're likely to be more stressed out in college, because it won't be the right one, or you're not entirely prepared for it. The ones who work really hard in high school towards their goals and find the right college for themselves, tend to be the ones who can relax a little once they get there, because they're highly prepared and they've made sure to select the best fit.
