[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Regarding the kid who had a tutor for every class and summer school. That is a HIGH motivated child. Very rare for that age group.[/quote] Met a lot of kids like that at HPY in the 80s, then observed it as a parent. The idea is to get ahead on all the hard classes of its a repeat. Nearly impossible not to have a high GPA. Kids were not highly motivated. It just the way the family did things. They did not even know it was weird until maybe 10th grade. [b]Why are all these kids enrolled in summer school at the wrong big 3 when they could take it at their own school and no one is putting it on their transcript.[/b][/quote] If they are enrolled in summer school, then how are they doing some enriching activity that will pad their resume?[/quote] Summer school is 3-4 weeks. Summer is long. Service trips are often 2-4. If money is not a problem you can still fit in a family trip. [/quote]
