Posted this in another thread, but since this seems to be a better place, I’ll post again.

D2 is interested in chemistry with a potential path leading to forensics. It appears that there are a lot of opportunities for research and internships in DC, as well as GWU.
What kind of HS prep would you recommend for the sciences? She is thinking of doubling up in science and will most likely take physics and possibly AP Calc BC senior year.

Also, D1 was accepted to Eliott last year in the honors program (was notified late because they forgot to send her letter with her acceptance letter - so it seemed like an afterthought) and chose not to attend. Do you think that would have an impact on D2’s decision?

Thanks for any info you can provide!
