(I’m not really looking for a debate on which is better, so I really hope this thread doesn’t go in that stressful direction.) I was just curious on what people decided to do for themselves and why and thought it might be helpful for others in the process of making that decision. This is the response for my teen:

Did you choose a Direct Admit or Non-Direct Admit Business School?

My teen chose Direct Admit.

And why?

My teen didn’t want to go through another application process after a year that gave her a 50/50 chance of being admitted into a non-direct admit school when she had the grades and SAT to get into a good direct admit school.

She didn’t want to end up in her second choice major at a non-direct admit school, which might have been biology, unless she really wanted to be in it. This would likely lead to a different career path for her that would’ve been outside of business.
