[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The process is indeed stressful but I’ve found that the when it’s over I realized that I put a lot of that stress on myself. [b]Rest assured that you will be accepted to at least one school that is a top choice and you will be happy. [/b] For now, just relax until March, which I know is hard to do because this has been such a significant commitment of your time over the past few months. [/quote] Huh? We were shut out for 7th grade with an awesome kid. Reapplied for 9th. Know many kids (10+) who were shut out. I get being positive but this is not truthful unless you are applying to lower tier schools. [/quote] I am not sure what you mean when you say “shut out”? Did your kid attend a private school and were they happy? Or did you go “Big 3 or bust” and not get accepted to any and stayed public? All of those schools are different so there should be a “top choice” for you that’s not “Big 3”. I am not sure I fully understand how someone could say that they applied to Princeton, CalTech and Julliard and didn’t get into any and therefore they were “shut out” of college admissions. [/quote]
