Mathmom, I like your elder son’s style! 
SuzyQ7, Really, I am not against visiting colleges. I merely think it’s most efficient to visit them after one gets in. Anyway, like I said, I will check with the school. It’s at least 16-17 months away when the school counselor will initiate the college app process, so we have time.
I didn’t quite understand the following, but given that they sound like personal digs I will skip over them.
"Its going to be hard for your son to figure out what he wants to do if he spends all his time doing what he doesn’t want to do.
Also, I call BS on all the homework. Your son has 2 frees and spends 6 hours on the weekend doing homework? Maybe he’s secretly playing video games ( - you wish)"
