A program hosted by the Robinson Center for Young Scholars at the University of Washington which accepts 16 7th and 8th graders to enter the UW early. Students must go through an one-year intensive transition school (TS) prior to entering the university. Most Early Entrance Program students thrive in the university environment, contrary to popular stereotypes of entering college early.

The forum where overachievers go, where people will do anything to get into Top 15, where people self-study APs, brag about their acceptances/rejections, and complain of getting 790.
That dude's going to self-study AP Physics C, AP Chemistry, AP Microeconomics, and is going to retake his 790 on the SAT II Chemistry. He must have gone to Collegeconfidential!
