[quote=Anonymous]We visited 21 (a few years ago). It worked for us. We started sophomore year, which made it pleasant vs pressured. We added trips on to other planned travel (visiting family, return from speciality camps). It allowed us to check out the towns, get credit for showing interest. Just have your kid jot down their impressions, so it is not one big blur when it comes time to write supplemental essays. (My kid—who had above average grades but not test scores—applied to 10 schools, and got into seven with nice offers of merit aid. (By the way, the high school counselor suggested applying to 10. Seven would have been perfectly adequate)[/quote]
