Ever think about the fact that most greek demi-gods probably don't plan anything past high school. I think many of them don't focus much on their grades or academics (besides Athena kids) because of the high fatality rate.

They just expect not to make it to high school graduation. I'm not hating on the Romans when I say this, but I think that's what makes the Greek demigods better fighters. They run in disorganized chaos in the eyes of the Romans, but, as we saw in Manhattan, there is order to it.

The Apollo cabin has the best archers + healers, so they normally stay further back to shoot and run the infirmary, w/ the exception of combat medics. (Obviously, after Manhattan, there isn't much leeway here.)

The Ares Cabin has the best fighters overall. They are the ones that charge ahead and go into battle. Hephaestus cabin is just as capable at fighting and forge their own weapons, not to mention traps and whatever else might be useful.

Aphrodite cabin has charmspeak for demigods and, despite what people may think, are capable of fighting. Hermes cabin has the speed to not only fight but also cover the backs of the other cabins. They're also stealthy and have proven themselves to be able to sabatoge and steal when necessary.

The Athena cabin comes up with the planning but also joins in to fight. I feel they help fight and cover Aphrodite cabin. Demeter cabin uses plants as a line of defense and uses them to attack. Obviously, they also have weapons, but their main way to attack the Romans is through plants.

Basically, while it looks chaotic, because everyone is constantly in motion and moving where needed, everyone knows what to do, like it's instinct, its actually their own way of thinking. They're prepared to die in every battle, prepared to go down like heroes. I honestly just don't think they can focus much on schooling with the thought that the closer you get to adulthood, the higher you get to either freedom or Elysium.
