I consider Exeter to be the greatest decision I have ever made. I graduated in 2007 after 4 years and have missed it ever since. The academics are certainly rigorous, as is the 6 day schedule, but it really brings everyone together and creates a community that is unbeatable. I felt as though I matured not only academically, but as a person as well. The Harkness method forces all students to be engaged, and to be confident and articulate in expressing their point of view. While faculty and advisors are always caring and available, they are not overbearing, leaving the student to manage his own time and priorities. The confidence and maturity built at Exeter are qualities which will carry you through life. I cannot stress enough how amazing the Exeter experience was overall, and how much I would recommend it to any gifted student!
The best choice I have ever made in my short life was to come to Exeter. Faculty is college level but yet still very involved with the students. This school is not for the faint of heart though. Also I wouldn't recomend it for the perfectionists, because you can't do everything at Exeter and you will have a breakdown if you try. You can't get all A's either. It actually teaches you to look at the bigger picture and make choices. Exeter will over prepare for college too, to a point where college is like a walk in the park compared to Exeter.
