[quote=Anonymous]Our child came from a private school and new zero people when she started. Freshman year she needed a little help for a couple of months filling in holes during Precalculus, but otherwise has never had trouble with the coursework. When she accepted, we talked about having a realistic expectation of 3 hours a night on average of homework and did she want to commit to that. That has rarely been true - many days where 1 hour or less and rare days when it is 3 hours. Many more light days than heavy days. In bed by 1030 most nights.

I'm not sure if the folks above posting are trying to scare people, or if there is really is a lot of variability in how hard kids have to work. It does not feel like my child's friends live stressed out either.

As for friends, she had not-close-friends but people to text and sit with at lunch for most of freshman year and then found better friends sophomore year. I actually think that's pretty common when starting a new school.

Has been a very good experience for our child.[/quote]
