Would you comment on son's list of colleges?

<p>As someone else mentioned, it is hard to comment on a list without knowing stats. College admissions can be very tricky. Might want to add more “safeties”. Case in point - my nephew. Brilliant kid - NMF, SAT 2390 (one and only sitting), Pres Schol semi, IB diploma, val, played a sport, lots of ECs including an internship at a national museum, etc. etc. Rejected at Harvard, Stanford, and MIT. Accepted at Harvey Mudd, CalTech, WashU, and Northwestern (and some safeties offering four year free rides). Ultimately decided that he wasn’t 100% sure he was “all science” and is attending Northwestern. Good choice in that he changed to a nonscience major his sophomore year!</p>
