[quote=Anonymous]Sometimes schools that look good on paper don't feel like a fit in person. Both my DCs dropped a number of schools from their lists after visiting. DC1 applied to 6 and had visited all 6. DC2 applied to 11 and visited 9 of the 11 although oddly ended up going to a school we did not visit. But both approaches can work, you may just need to have a longer list of sight unseen schools so that the kid has good choices if they decide that one of the schools they were accepted at isn't a fit after all. That's also kid dependent. In my case DC1 was very particular and had strong views. DC2 was pretty flexible and felt they would be comfortable at a range of schools.[/quote]
