[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My DD had pretty unpredictable results this year. Rejected or waitlisted from top 10 schools, 3 acceptances from top 25 schools, 1 acceptance 5 waitlist from her target schools, basically schools between 25-50 range, accepted to all 3 of her likely schools. She was surprised by being waitlisted from so many target schools. But she is happy with the results. [/quote] Congrats to your DD! May I ask if your DD is at a private? The privates we are considering are limiting applications to 8-10 schools - one allowing only 2 applications to schools that have a less than 20% acceptance rate (which includes a LOT of schools). So your outcome of choices would simply not be remotely possible.[/quote] Her private encourages the kids to limit applications to 15, but they can apply to all the UCs as 1. She got into 2 UCs and waitlisted at 3. [/quote]
