[quote=Anonymous]We just went through the process and DC said the principal and college counselors continuously lectured them about not sharing with each other. Of course they all still did and things got pretty competitive, with one mean girl who had top stats telling others that she was applying to such-and-such school just to hurt their chances (dream school of other kids). They know that they are competing with each other for the handful of spots kids from their school will get at select universities. A friend of my DC's asked my DC not to apply to a particular school because it was friend's first choice and friend thought my DC would hurt their chances. My DC was in tears a couple of times during the course of the application process, but ended up at first choice school so it all ended well. It can get pretty ugly though. [/quote]
