[quote=Anonymous]A safety is a place where (1) your stats are >75%ile, (2) the admission rate is >60%, and (3) your kid would be happy to go there. This is the hardest part of building your list. Focus on the happy element. Have your kid do the work of finding them. My kid spent about 4-5 hours last year finding 2! She’s at a top 10 school now, but she would have been happy at her safeties. Those were 2 LACs in California that offered great programs in her field of interest. [/quote]
