<p>Perhaps they see it as a game, perhaps they are aiming for the scholarships. BUT, what is going to happen when they arrive at that college campus of choice and they do NOT make the highest grade in each class, etc.? I would be very cautious of a student that cannot live without scoring the highest because it is a game, etc. College just does not work that way–and college years can be an extremely stressful time for some students, esp the ones that may be accustomed to winning at the game. Just my 2 cents!</p>
