    Parents of the High School Class of 2017/College 2021

    My DDs school still hasn’t finalized spring schedule. They are considering canceling spring break and ending a week early in May. I assume that would move graduation up a week too. I wasn’t able to get a hotel reservation in her college town for the original grad date but did for the week early...

    READ POST 1 & 2 FIRST-Rise of the Resistance Boarding Group Planning and Information-*No Spoilers*

    I got my friend & her DD boarding group 18 on Thursday. My friends app never loaded. I was able to get BG before her DD. They are friends on my account so I used my sign on not hers. I had been practicing with mix results. My DS & I are going in late May so nice to try for real. My friend was...

    Waitlist Question

    I recently had a waitlist on Lake View or Theme Park View studio at BLT. When Lake View came through TPV was canceled. I don't recall setting priority on which one I wanted more.

    Wow! Congrats! My DD who didn't spend too much time preparing got a 31. I think she could maybe do better but since she has her sights set on a technical degree at a junior college (band instrument repair) she won't be taking it again. She needed a 22 to get that school's Presidential...

    May 2020 Car Rental Watch

    I think it must be the Key West pick up. But it now leaves me with negative opinion of Avis. Well actually reenforces my negative opinion of them after an issue we had with them 30 years ago.o_O You seem to have an extra digit in Costco ID. It should be 7014727. My rates still no change. What...

    May 2020 Car Rental Watch

    I tried it and it was a bit cheaper than Alamo but had no included miles. It was .25/mile. We’re flying to key west then driving to WDW so I don’t think this is a good option for us.

    Class of 2021 Parents

    My poor DD has a nasty head cold for tomorrow's ACT. I'm sure she'll still do OK. She only needs a 22 for the highest scholarship at the community college where's she's applying and she got a 28 and 30 on the two practice tests she took. I was hoping she would do really well in case she...

    Its been a few years since I've been. You can certainly finish eating before 9:00am. It helps to ask for the check somewhat early but you may not see all the characters.

    That stinks....my DS who is a college freshman was most prepared for SAT his 2nd time taking it. The College Board considered it an "easy" test so his score was much lower than it should have been. Fortunately he still got into all the schools he applied to and is very happy where he is right...

    Class of 2021 Parents

    Good luck to your DS. My DD is also taking ACTs on 2/8. Not too many kids around here take the ACTs but the school she wants to go to uses the ACT for their scholarships. She want to do band instrument repair-a technical degree. There are only 3 colleges in the US that offer the program...

    BWI or BLT

    What size room? The studios at BLT are small but the 1BR is huge-I prefer BLT especially the layout of the 1BR over BWV. I also like to rent a car and find parking at BLT to be much easier. I can walk to MK and drive to other parks. Before I bought DVC I loved the rooms at BWI so I bought...

    Parents of the Class of 2019

    It’s been a whirlwind of a summer with little time for the dis boards. I just got all caught up. Enjoyed reading everyone’s updates. My DS left for work in Alaska right after graduation. First time he has traveled alone. He’s grown up a lot and should be ready for college just 8 hour drive...

    Our public school is the same-you won't get AP credit if you don't take the exam. In addition to paying for the exam, we have to purchase the text books for AP classes.

    Parents of the Class of 2019

    My DD(2017) took AP Physics-her teacher said it was one of the toughest exams. She scored high enough for credit but since it is the basis for her field, Meteorology, she opted to take it over in college. DS(2019) is taking AP Economics-seems like most kids in our school score very well on...

    At accepted student day for Clarkson all the student panels for Aeronautical Engineering told the kids not to get a MacBook because some of the required software didn't work well on Macs. My DD17 could have purchased a laptop through her school which would have meant free repairs for the 4...
