[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For a struggling student, not everyone views a small private college as the best choice. At a large state school there can be more chances to retake a class with a different professor, arrange your class schedule for what works best (maybe no morning classes) easy to adjust your schedule by dropping or adding classes, transferring classes, switching majors.

True. It really depends on the kid, their learning style, social preferences, etc. There are big schools that work for many kids too. [b]My friend's daughter thrived at Rutgers after being a pretty lackluster student in high school.[/b] She ended up going to graduate school in psychology.[/quote]

She and thousands like her.  Who hasn't known lackluster h.s. students who hit their stride in college?  Some kids have it all together in high school (at least from outside appearances) and bravo to them.  But there's a reason for the terms "late bloomer" and "peaked in high school."  Life is long and kids grow and mature at their own pace.  To suggest kids who didn't do well in H.S. shouldn't go to college is absurd.   [/quote]
