[quote=Anonymous]We had very little help from Guidance this year for my son's college apps, so I tried to take a lot of it on myself in terms of helping him research and target schools. When he was rejected early from his number one choice (but a "reach") we ended up applying to another 15 schools. Of those schools, we currently have 4 accepts, 2 accepts but not to the school he applied to, 6 rejections, 1 waitlist, and 2 schools left to hear from. Did we plan this operation properly? Shoot too high? Is the goal to get mostly acceptances or is it to apply to such a variety of schools that you get a realistic picture of where your child is showing with colleges in larger context? This is my first kid to apply to college so I appreciate any insights. [/quote]
