FSI is a summer program for incoming freshman who's high schools might not have adequately prepared them for the challenging Princeton workload. I know a few people who did FSI and all had positive experiences. I can't find any information about it on the web, so your best bet is to contact FSI and ask them to put you in touch with a past participant.
Just people who haven't taken some courses that one might need in college. It's basically a summer remedial/catch-up semester; like, if you didn't learn all of pre-calculus and trig during your high school career, you'd be learning that there.
