We had a slightly different take on early list building. It was honestly way more about narrowing down things they liked and didn’t like in a school and opening their eyes to there being more schools than the 10 they know now (which will inevitably the flagship and all the reaches). While it’s true the change a lot in these years, starting for getting a feel for what they like we found to be helpful at this age.

This is precisely why I want to start these considerations now. I don’t want to discourage the reaches but I do want him to know about other schools/options out there. Thank you!!
