daughter has high hopes - chance her?

<p>I also agree with JHS’s advise totally! Your D is very talented and bright. But as you must have seen here, no one can guarantee admission to any of these colleges. Also, getting into a college is really the first step. It is not an end but means to an end and I would say, we as parents need to remember that. </p>

<p>Don’t make getting into a specific college as the end all proposition. Remind your D that if she is motivated and works as hard as she has so far, she will do well no matter where she ends up going.</p>
