<p>I agree. I think that fit is over emphasized for the reasons you stated above. My C liked all of the schools that we visited (GLADCHEMMS) and I am sure that if we visited others C probably would have liked them.</p>
<p>The sifting that I as a parent must do and C to some extent is academic rigor, does school have C’s sport–what level, coach o.k.?, distance from home.</p>
<p>I don’t follow at all the fit thing other than the above kinds of triage…YMMV</p>
