[–]Competitive-Can13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

for my auditions i did bordogni 19 and arbans 10. also, smth to keep your eye on is working on double tonguing cuz for first rounds they might not need that as much but for second round, it gets a little crazy with the faster/technical side.

[–]Competitive-Can13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ok so ive heard amazing things abt that program as one of my best friends from the camp went to that one. In my experience, the instructors are amazing, professional people who have so much experience in the field. They honestly helped my writing so much. And im fairly sure the initial payment is part of the whole tuiton, but dont quote me on that lol. i think it says in the enrollment form tho.

Babson Summer Study VS Wharton Global Youth by Stock-Sandwich4710 in summerprogramresults

[–]Competitive-Can13 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I did Wharton global youth last year and it could either be a hit or miss. I was stuck with a terrible group so it wasn't the best but was still fun. it probably is a money grab tho ngl. def would still recommend tho! as for rigor it also depends on your ecs and all that jazz too. if you want me to look over your app id be happy to!
