There should be more of these multiple choice tests. I'm very good at multiple choice. It's always (b) or (d). It is hardly ever (a), but I know that, and I often use (a) in my Science Olympiad tests. |

Bumping: confirmed money grab. They take your registration then don't respond to questions. Caveat Emptor! Steer clear!!!!+! Sucks when you can't even be pleasantly surprised. Hopefully this didn't happen to you. If so was any of it worthwhile? In my daughter's case a college coach reached about about JDV as this coach was sending an assistant to one of their camps locally so I was really beginning to wonder if it was a real opportunity for kids who want to play at the next level. |

In my daughter's case a college coach reached about about JDV as this coach was sending an assistant to one of their camps locally so I was really beginning to wonder if it was a real opportunity for kids who want to play at the next level. We never gave in and went to any of these. Thankfully my daughter was able to get exposure from just grunt work emailing coaches with video and a couple fortunate connections that helped pass her video along that helped grab some school's attention. (We're at small club with no organized recruiting assistance) These company-run showcase are frankly just way overpriced compared to other showcases/camps that are run by the clubs. However, the situation above is the one time I can see it being of benefit. If a coach specifically tells you they will have their assistant check out your daughter at the event, then it might be worthwhile. However, it is a lot of money for a low chance of return. I assume that the colleges participate with companies like this because it's a way for them to get their low-paid assistants a little bit of extra money that would come from the organizing company. |
