[quote=Anonymous]In addition to safeties, he could use some targets too. The list is entirely reaches, which means getting shut out is quite possible. Do not overestimate the value of a great test score at reaches, especially while they have test optional policies. Have him choose a few targets -- basically, schools beyond the top 40-ish, more like 40s-80s. (The big caveat is that some schools in this range might not admit if they think he is unlikely to attend, i.e. they yield-protect, so supplemental essays should be handled with care.) And of course some affordable safeties. Will he be needing financial aid?[/quote]
