Most boys will reach their adult height before their 16th birthday. They will continue to "fill out" for a few more years. Kind of like a puppy at 6 months. As for emotional, some are mature at 15 some will not mature till 30, or maybe never. Academically, you will have a VERY good idea what type of student you are dealing with by the end of Freshman year. Kind of like having a VERY good idea what type of lacrosse player the kid is by that same time. Not saying their aren't exceptions to all my points, just stating on average.

..so would one agree that; "there are exceptions to most every rule, and quoting one or two students' testimony regarding D1 schools, or Michael Jordan's late start at basketball, may not determine FACT for all kids/ athletes?
