<p>Lol. Same here.</p>
<p>Actually, I don’t find it surprising that someone going through the application process for the first time, first kid, would completely misinterpret the rules of the FA/MA game and not realize the mistakes and missed oportunities until the apps were already in. And the landscape has changed again, with the new more generous policies for defining “need” for the purposes of FA at HYP. </p>
<p>I wonder if Dad11 will find that the bully tactic worked and D, saddled with the do or die pressure of winning the big scholarship at Duke or elsewhere, will do as Dad wants and work on those apps night and day until the deadline. I hope she’s successful, even if that means Dad will feel completely justified in his approach.</p>
