What Is Govenor's School Like?

<p>I'm a junior who was one of the 10% of students accepted into the Govenor's School for my state and I'm super excited (and kind of nervous)!</p>

<p>If anyone knows, what is the whole experience like? Do you make friends? Is it extremely difficult? Do you have freedom to explore the city you're in?</p>

<p>Can you get special scholarships for going to a Govenor's School?</p>

<p>Does going to Govenor's School help you get into college? Does it increase your chance of the Ivy League? Govenor's School is pretty competitive so does being accepted mean you're one of the smartest kids in your state?</p>

<p>Any and all input is appreciated :)</p>
