Pre-College Issues Summer Programs

I am thinking about taking a 2-week robotics course in this program. It costs basically $4000 though. I have a couple of questions:

  1. Is it worth the money? Is it both a good academic and social experience?
  2. What do you do outside of class?
  3. Easy to make friends? Did you befriend mostly people in your classes or a variety of people?
    4… How selective is it? I have a 4.2W GPA, is that good enough?

And for those who have taken STEM-related classes in this program, how is the gender ratio? The reason I ask is because I took several robotics and gaming related classes before and I was the only girl in many of them :/, although it’s a minor concern.

Also, is there a lot of hooking up/drugs/partying?
