Reply to "PG Fall Academic Showcase"

So, I'm going to look at this through a slightly different lens. First, the OP mentioned D1 & D3 HA schools. So, these schools and others like them with extremely difficult admissions (<15% acceptance ) are going to recruit nationally...they have to. Second, do you know if it is worthwhile to attend these showcases because your 2020 son has the necessary academic metrics or are you guessing he will have the necessary academic metrics in the future? It seems to me that going to this PG Academic showcase is a leap of faith (based on previous feedback & turnout) that enough RCs will be in attendance to make this worth while. Your son will need to go to national level showcases (in the future) to get the attention of these HA schools but I'd signup & travel ($$$) only after scoring acceptable (or in the neighborhood) metrics for SATs/ACTs that are going to make it worthwhile for your son and the coaches.

As always, JMO.
