50% of my cc student body was high school students in that program. That cohort was higher achieving than the average hs student.

I think the big difference was that they were there to teach, not do research. They would have left for engineering or s/w jobs long ago I they didn't actually love teaching

Maybe my experience was in part shaped by the fact that I took classes at night. Were the classes you took exclusive to members of the dual credit program? It does make sense, as basically every teacher I had at my cc was phenomenal. Though I did go to a truly massive cc.
