They listened to TED talks and followed up with spirited discussions. They met with college admission officers. They wrote poetry and watched the sun set in a blaze of glory each night. They produced Midsummer Night's Dream and Hamlet.
They took SAT practice exams. Lots of them. They learned how to do field research. They polished their interview skills.
They played hard and studied harder.
