Bokonist, thanks for the recommendation and the link. Interestingly, that is exactly how Kaplan works with their GRE, GMAT online study programs. You've described it exactly in your description. The technical term for that is self-efficacy. The idea is that it is challenging enough, but not too challenging. Another field that nails this, and is consequently very addictive, is video games. We love to feel like we can master something and learning is no different.
Would you consider working with us in approaching Exeter? I've found that having a connection always helps.
Regarding the approach you've described, I think that works particularly well for math problems/courses. Did Exeter do anything innovative with content related courses (biology, psychology, literature) that stood out to you?
