Receive, dearest Mother, our offerings and listen attentively to our supplications. Amen.

Has anyone read the book What About College by Caffi Cohen? Is it worth reading?

Thanks!

I have it. It is good; especially good for those who don't enroll with a school. It explains how to do a trascript and a portfolio and is really helpful for the relaxed/unschooly type.

The author has a web-site Home school Teens College. net which should have updated info ... here's a link to an interview with her on a Christian home school site.

I liked the book alot ... another one you might want to check out is CHC's High School of Your Dreams -- it also has lots of info if you're not registered with Clonlara or someone.

I liked the book - a lot of it didn't apply to me in Australia but the "build your own curriculum" bit was good. I liked the tips and philosophy.
