[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]"Yes, I am the parent to a C student in high school at a top private. DS was admitted many years ago as a younger sibling. Smart kid but he has difficulty producing the amount of writing required by the school, even in science courses. I'm hoping that it will get easier as he matures. The C's definitely will impact his college choices but DS is happy and in the long-term learning to be a proficient and quick writer should be an asset. "

I think my younger sibling DC is going to have problems producing the volume of writing required in older sibling's high school.  If you had it to do over again, would you have applied to other high schools for the younger sib? If so, any idea where would have been a better fit?[/quote]

Yes, I wish that we would have applied to other high schools.  DS is in a progressive school and he should have been moved to something with more structure, and fewer big projects.  If you really think it might be a problem it might be worth having a psych-ed done, especially if the school is recommending it.  [/quote]
