  PREP was a crazy and fun experience. The program taught me a lot, not only with education but also life goals and situations. It was a rewarding program and
remember, don't steal Jesse's shoes.

  I enjoyed Prep a lot because I got to meet a lot of people and got to do a lot of different things I wouldn't be able to do anywhere else.
- Ashlie Tagawa
  I like Prep because it is a taste of college life. We're very free and pretty much on our own, but it does make us more responsible because you get to
know what it feels like to not always have your parents correct all of your mistakes and it kind of teaches you maturity a little bit.
- Asia David

PREP has been fascinating in many ways. The first of which has been the intelligent/social structure. In PREP, people who are usually bright but shy get a chance to socialize in a way most school environments just don't even allow.

If there was one thing I enjoyed the most it would be the new and cool friends that I met here, because they made me feel at home and I could tell them anything. They were always there for me! To me, if there is one thing I can say about this group, it would be that everyone here will be a superstar someday!!!!!!!!!
- Oshe Robinson

  It was hard to get started but once I got going I
had a great time, made good friends and understood the great opportunity that was given to me by being accepted into this enriching program. As a tip, I would tell the new kids to do the stuff they need to do before they do the stuff that they want to do, and they will survive and have a good time as well.
- Peter Aquino
  I've enjoyed PREP because I got to meet several new people and make new friends that I wouldn't have met if wouldn't have come. I also like PREP because I started to learn higher math, and science, and have learned something that I haven't learned about at my regular school.
- Serena Charles

  When times get rough, always think on the positive side and don't let anything discourage you. Whether you did horribly bad on an exam or you screwed up on your homework, don't let that get you down. When I get stressed, I always talk to my friends or family and it makes me feel at ease, again.
- Theresa Torres


If better is possible, then good ain’t enough!
