美国有实力的高中学生暑期项目汇总X

---------------------------------------------
有竞争力的学生暑假活动/Jessica
十年级以后一定要参加有竞争力的夏令营，或者说是录取率低于40％的。申请这类camps其实就是申请大学的预演, 被录取代表了孩子具有显著的 ACADEMIC distinctions。文科除了TASP以外几乎很少有竞争力高的，有兴趣有爱好想锻炼身体培养情操的也可自己搜索：http://www.chooseacamp.com/， http://www.summercamps.com/
看一个camp的好坏主要看两点：费用和录取率。免费的录取率10％以下的最好也最难进。那些许多得大奖的都是参加了这些Research programs后的成果展示。
要早做准备，program越好，申请截止日期越早。
