[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I actually think it makes a lot of sense for colleges to be asking this question. Especially for those that are looking to weed out kids who are just shotgunning to a bunch of schools without knowing anything about those schools. From my understanding as long as you demonstrate interest and knowledge about the school, you should be set. No need to overthink.[/quote] Completely disagree. Most kids need to "shotgun" a bunch of schools b/c the acceptance rates are so low and because it can be a crapshoot... [/quote] That's really not a great approach. If your kid's interests are well defined, they should be narrowing in on a pretty good fit from the over 4,000 choices available. If they aren't well defined, then why would they scattershot across a bunch of schools that have a nice website? Those are perfect candidates for an in-state public university with lots of options across a varied curriculum.[/quote]
