[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Op here. We are visiting the schools. We are on a visit to one of these schools now and this is when she finally confessed how she feels, in tears. [b]For those who are telling us she should have worked harder, thanks for that unhelpful advice[/b]. She had a rough freshman year grades-wise and it’s been hard to recover. She knows it too. [/quote] My DS is in the same position, and people act like it's catching. Your DD has some good choices (as does my DS). While I think my DS could have worked harder in HS, I also think that he doesn't want to be in that rat race, and the schools that he got into are better choices [i]for him[/i][b] than higher ranked schools. It's hard for our kids to leave home. Just keep encouraging your DD. Good luck to you both![/quote] Colleges aren't going to hold a "rough freshman year grades-wise" against any student who bounces back. [/quote]
