Is this obsession healthy

Doesn’t the whole college process breed this obsession? The application process is much more intense that when I went to school.
All college bound senior do their first semester is focus on all that is involved in applying to college. The second semester is for interviews, auditions, scholarships, and whatever else might be needed. It’s no wonder that in March they are driving themselves crazy and pretty much just want high school to be over.
We as parents (I think) need to be the voice of reason and perspective for our kids, not an additional source of stress.
