@BernieMadoff: “Yes it is expensive its somewhat of a scam. If you notice the best high school summer programs are free.”

This is absolutely untrue. Summer programs offered by universities or boarding schools are big moneymakers for those institutions and are naturally much less selective than the schools themselves. Just because those institutions don’t have shareholders, doesn’t mean they don’t profit. P2P is, in my observation, a well-run set of programs. Experiences will vary, of course, but calling it a scam is inappropriate. They offer a product at a price. If it doesn’t work for you, be gracious.

Parting thought. Nothing that costs money to produce is really free. You may be confusing the fact that someone else may generously pay your bill. Hopefully you’ll be such a generous person in the future.
