[QUOTE="KTMom91, post: 423865, member: 4040"] Miss KT knew from the get-go that she would be going to a community college first. She doesn't test well, and I knew the SAT/ACT would be a huge struggle for her, so that was one of my selling points...they're not required for community colleges here. Also, our district has three sets of graduation requirements, and she was on the third track...the one that meets CA standards, but does not fulfill requirements for a four-year college. Four years of math and science would have done her in...another selling point. I understand you don't want to totally burst her bubble and have her give up on the idea of college. Maybe a small private college would be a better fit than a huge state university for Jumper; smaller campus, lower teacher to student ratio. It's working well for Miss KT. [/QUOTE]
