Anecdotally, it did seem to work out well for my S24. But that is a sample of one, so again not exactly proof, just an illustration of one possible scenario.

Well, just to be clear, cross-admits (Parchment) are not the same as Targets vs. Reaches. But just going back to my thought experiment: “X is my dream school, but in case I don’t get in there, I will also apply to Y”, you have to admit there is a lot of sunlight, not to mention snow and black ice, between Wesleyan and St. Olaf; are you saying Connecticut College was your S24’s dream school?
