[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] College will be easier. My dd went to NCS, and was an average student there. She is now in college, and she and her friends from NCS all say college is so much easier.[/quote] Why do you want college to be easier than high school? More time to party?[/quote] Not PP but the stakes of college are much higher. For grad school admissions you need to be getting straight As starting freshman fall. You’re also spending a ton of money (probably more than private HS). If you fail you don’t get a refund. The kids at the top of the class in college get picked for paid research experience, funded study abroad, could potentially graduate a semester or a year early and are great candidates for law & med school or a PhD program. Jobs like investment banking screen on GPA & recruit 15+ months before you’d begin your internship at a particular bank. It’s best to enter college immediately ready to excel with confidence.
