A side-conversation with this…and something that I didn’t realize until I just finished this with my 1st kid last week…the absolute top colleges announce last. Which means that your kid could be feeling really good about their mix of applications (and how they’ve done) only to be hit with 3, 4, 7 rejections all within 48 hours at the very end… Not sure what to do with that bit of info…but i’m seeing it all over the boards right now…kids who were feeling great last week…who are knocked sideways by the huge influx of No’s at the very very end…
