[quote=Anonymous]You've received some great advice here, however the process is about your child's aspirations, not yours. You're looking at it all wrong. Once you have better data about your child (test scores, academic performance) you and your child can start to develop, as has been said, a balanced list of reaches, targets, and safeties. Then visit a bunch in person, from all 3 categories to get a flavor of her priorities. My high stats, huge EC's kid is applying ED to a "target", because that is the school he loves for many reasons. My other is at reach for everyone, with a less than 5% RD acceptance rate, that she wanted more than anywhere. So what. Once you have done your research and you know more, let your child's wishes come to the fore, not yours.[/quote]
