[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Given that a lot of private school kids seem to have gotten in ED/EA to T20 schools, what does that mean for RD? It sort of feels hopeless with 2-3 kids from each school already accepted, especially for unhooked kids.[/quote] Apply broadly and have 5 safeties.[/quote] This, and make sure they are actual safeties. I don’t care what stats your kid has. If they are not in or above the 75th percentile for both gpa and test scores (above 75th for GPA if applying test optional, and dig deep to find the 75th for specific programs like engineering or business if necessary), and if the school has an overall admit rate less than 70%, it is NOT a safety.
