<p>Has anyone taken this course? Is it good, hard, what?
Someone please reply.. In an 8th grader, and it's my first time at CTY.
Thanks in advance.</p>
<p>no idea on the specific course, sorry. though, i took Neurosci (another science course) it's only as hard as you make it to be. The environment is not competitive and my teacher did not give tests or grades or even any papers-it's more of the learning process. we had "assignments" that were fun and interesting. Don't worry about it, have a lot of fun!! :-) It's really something that you'll never forget</p>
<p>Hey yup i took this course after 8th grade and it waz challenging but i had a BLAST!! CTY waz prolly one of the best things i ever did...and its wat got me into college. So ya. I say definately do it...u'll meet some of the coolest-smartest kids ever...

<p>piggy back off of ^
I'm sure CTY was not the only thing that got him/her into college.
If you're thinking IVY-tiered schools, I doubt that it will help that much. (but then again, it's hard to pinpoint exactly what is going to get you into college). </p>
<p>But pinky15 is right in saying that you'll meet some of the coolest-smartest kids ever. You'll even <em>gasp</em> actually stay in touch after the 3 weeks are over. You'll make some really great friends.</p>
