[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Op, what schools do you think would be good for him - curriculum-wise and for you financially. Have your own list even if you don't necessarily share it with him. You can insist that he see a few. He isn't going to want you to pick his school - of course not - he will likely get in gear. Your anxiety will be less if you've done something. [/quote] Thanks, PP. That's what others have advised as well and I have made a nominal list. I also got him a Fiske's Guide to look at this summer. For a kid who's unlikely to spend a lot of time researching colleges on the internet, I thought a book with teen accessible summaries (and I love the sections where they cite strong programs at the school and what other colleges are similar) would be a good start for him. Even those baby steps have brought the anxiety meter down for me. :) [/quote]
