Newly married. Step son is 16 years old and is suddenly seized with wanting to become an engineer. The issue is that his mother sent him to low-achieving schools, so he's quite weak in math, and we're battling the clock with only 75% of junior year left. If I "throw the kitchen sink" at this and provide him with resources inc. unlimited access to a private tutor, math weekend courses, SAT prep this summer, and an engineering student mentor at the local university, should he see dramatic improvements by this time next year ... or could I be setting us up for disappointment?
Never been through this, so I'm not really sure what to expect, or what milestones to set.
