[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We are going to California for a family vacation and I thought we might take in a college tour or two since we may not get back there anytime soon. DS is only finishing his freshman year but I figure it would be good for him to hear how competitive it is to get into a good school so that he will be inspired to pick up his GPA next year. Bad idea to start so early?[/quote] This is mixed and may depend on where he is in school. Many schools in this area create way too much stress around the college application process and that stress starts earlier and earlier. It can be very destructive to think of your entire high school career in terms of colleges. But if your DS doesn't go to one of these really competitive schools that might be different.[/quote]
