hopefully, you’ve read the middlebury nonsense and the descriptions of some of the people they’ve selected.

Two “c’s” shouldn’t disqualify you from being evaluated but life sometimes isn’t fair–i remember an amherst adcom meeting on TV that trashed some kid with a “c”. some schools don’t even look if the SAT/ACT is below a certain level. That seems to be prevalent among schools that have garnered 20,000 plus applicants. How can you individually evaluate that many kids?

I trust you had other apps ready to go and sent them out. You should be hearing in a few days. Many kids have settled for their second or third choices and have wound up loving the college and the fun they have. Probably, no one should fall in love with a school with the amount of craziness currently going on.
What are your other choices? Do you have a safety?
