[quote=Anonymous]Having just been through HS and the college process, 11th and 12th grade really are tough at any school. Even if it is not one of the schools that seem to be pushing Ivy's, the testing, application process and waiting to hear results cna drive anyone bonkers. Add in a tough academic schedule and it just makes it miserable. Sports were actually a good thing. It gave my DC a release from all the pressure. It doesn't matter if you are not one of those families pushing for the ivy league. The college process is just tough. It is much different than when we went through it. Much more competitive, even for non ivy and top SLAC schools. Finding the right school socially is as important. They need ot feel they have a group to hang out with.[/quote]
