<p>kdos - As someone said up above, it's certainly not for everyone. The pressure is there - personalized attention and all, but also pressure to keep grades up. A B-minus or lower will trigger a conversation to find out what's going on. And if the GPA dips below 3.5, there is a danger of getting booted out of the program. But my kid loves what he's doing so much, "pressure" is not the right word in his case. "Fun" would be more like it.</p>
