Delbows - do you mind sharing which school it is?
PJF - very thruthful, personal view. Thank you for your honesty.
Do you mind if I ask why you stayed at Andover, since it looks like you did not fit in/did not enjoy it to the fullest?
Do you think spending two years at Andover has shaped you in a way that your local HS would not be able to?
DS has asked that, if admitted, he will have to stay even if he dislikes it. My response was that he will have to make it through Christmas and after that it is going to be his call. It is going to be his call to begin with when he visits, but one needs a little more than a week to know what it is really all about...
