Stop Me From Jumping The Gun!

For those of you who are into Myers-Briggs -- my profile includes a J (which means I like closure) and let me tell you, I have a bad habit of jumping the gun on things. I'm the kind who packs for a business trip a few days early and then it gets cancelled, where my procrastinating partner didn't waste that time. I have rising hs juniors and I'm already at the "shouldn't they have their list ready" stage, LOL. I have to be careful that I don't have them make moves too early, if that makes sense.

We are fortunate enough to be full pay so I could see it being a distinct possibility that they apply ED. (Which would, of course, appease my Myers-Briiggs J like no one's business). So, of course, I start backing it all up and pretty soon I'm panicked that they haven't already taken their SAT's!

So, for rising hs juniors who might potentially be ED'ing a year from this fall,
what are *realistic* timetables for taking ACT's, SAT's, and AP's so that they'd have their portfolio ready? (They are taking the PSAT this fall per mailings we just got from school) And what are *realistic* timetables for making general visits to colleges to get an idea of what they want, and then "real" visits?

Thanks in advance!
