[quote=Anonymous]My DC got in EA to a top 10 school and did very little homework second semester senior year, ending up with 2 C's on his report card. He got a nasty letter from the admissions dean over the summer asking for clarification as to his academic plan for the fall. My son's response was respectful but not exactly penitent. The admissions offer was not rescinded and he has done just fine once he got to school. The point is that senioritis is a rampant disease that takes over once the pressure of being admitted is off. I don't recommend living on the edge as what happened in my household, but it is a short term problem. Given how much ridiculous pressure our students are under during high school, it's not surprising that they let go once the game is up. I don't think that "asshole" is the correct word to describe this attitude. [/quote]
