I’m planning on whether I should ask my parents to let me do one of the online pre-college courses they offer at Brown (Exploring Engineering). Is it worth my time?
It’s a worthwhile experience. It’ll allow you to live on a college campus and see a university. Is it worth it financially? It depends on your family’s discretionary income. Who can answer this?
Will it help you in college admissions? Indirectly, it may focus you to be a better HS student. But this program is like other summer pgms aimed at HS students. It surely won’t give you a leg up on Brown admissions, per se.
No, no I’m not interested in the programs that happens on the campus, rather a certain pre-college online course. Do you think those are good just in general?
Well it’s free. Why not try it out and see?
