    Does anyone have experience within the last 2 summers with the EPGY Summer Institutes for Middle School in the subjects of:

    --Creative Writing
    --Expository Writing
    --Earth Science
    --Computer Science

    Any observations or opinions are welcome!

    I also have a specific question because I have a child who wants attend the creative writing course with a friend who has difficulty with writing but also really wants to go. I don't want her going to a program that her friend is eligible for and being bored if the level is too low. So does anyone know if the instructors are able to differentiate for the range of giftedness among the students?
