<p>Sorry you took my comments as being “over the top”. While 6 AP classes is a very heavy load for HS, it is a “normal load” for college. My remarks were made to make this student aware of the pressures that await next year, and the restrictive environment in which the plebe will be operating, in hopes that this particular student will find the “key” for him (or her) to efficient studying.</p>
<p>When my mid was a plebe, more than half of the plebes in the company were UNSAT at 6 weeks. They were used to having more time to devote to schoolwork, including staying up as late as necessary to get it all finished, and had difficulty meeting all their obligations in the limited amount of time available.</p>
<p>This student indicated displeasure with the 3 C’s; I only indicated the need to come to an early realization that the current level of coursework expectation is similar to that required of a plebe.</p>
<p>Good Luck to all.
