<p>Thanks SteveMA- I will take your advice to “cast a wide net” to heart! Wondering how many colleges I should have her apply to; with the Common App, I sort of feel like there’s no reason not to apply to, like, 15 schools. In fact, when I read advice to apply to fewer schools… it seems like that advice usually comes from college admissions folks who have their own reasons to discourage that many apps. Or am I way off on that?</p>
<p>My daughter took a practice ACT last weekend and I will have her take the real test next month. Should have the results of her SAT by 3/28. :)</p>
