[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For the fact he’s already complaining about the grinding and make you question yourself if this is the right decision - maybe regular program with regular amount of works work better for him. [/quote] Well there is the reality and where he wants to be. We are fine if he goes to a GMU or NOVA, and finds his path from that, but he has this hang up about proving himself and getting into a SLAC, thus the mismatch between goal and attitude at this juncture. [/quote] Private schools are generally known to give more homework than public schools. They also offer fewer classes in some subjects but there is more support and control over peer group (from the admissions department) Personally if my kid was going to be unhappy and not take full advantage of the private school he’d be at Wakefield.
