<p>My D is in Honors at A&M in Chemistry. I think the main benefit is Freshman year and living in the Honors Dorms. There is a great community and family feel to these dorms that most other dorms don’t seem to cultivate. The other great thing is getting to sign up for classes early. This can really make your schedule choosing easier! I think she will drop Honors eventually, but it has been a great experience for her first year. She did get a few extra awards and extra scholarships that might have been influenced by Honors. I’m not really sure if that played a role or not. She has a 4.0 GPA, so A’s are definitely possible.</p>
