[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Any can anyone share their experience with the Brown or Wake Forest summer programs? Or others? [/quote] I read (here? Facebook? It all blends together now) that kids in the Wake programs tend to be very young, like rising 9th-10th graders, so it's a real drag for older students. That being said, *supposedly* Wake's summer program does confer some benefit in the admissions process. As far as Brown: my kid applied as a rising 9th grader and again as a rising 10th grader and was accepted very quickly both years. They did not attend either summer -- IIRC the first summer ended up being all online, and the second they did something else instead. Anyway, my inference is it's not particularly competitive. I don't think it adds anything to one's application. (In this particular case, my child was only interested in one specific course, in their area of interest -- not because it was *Brown*.)[/quote]
