Wow, my daughter did so well on her SAT she is getting tons of university application invites to Ivy League schools—Yale, Harvard, Stanford, Johns Hospkins…and tons of other universities as well. Though we do feel she would be better off finishing what she needs at the local community college—won’t be too many extra classes with her AP credits at this rate, but after online high school we feel she will do best in smaller classes and she can live at home which is much cheaper. I don’t know in the end whether she will end up going to university in Houston (which would still allow her to live at home) or possibly the university where H is a prof and we’d get a break on tuition. She might be able to ride in and out with H depending on her class schedules. If she goes for an engineering degree (H’s department), they even offer a lot of online courses. She’s professed some interest in computer science but H is trying to get her to consider getting the computer science engineering degree instead of the degree from the business college. That engineering department is very helpful at getting students internship which often lead to job offers. She just has one year of high school left. I am already starting to get overwhelmed!

I was smart but definitely didn’t do so well on my SAT (though I had a good score, just not an impressive one)Ivy League schools were inviting me to apply!
