[quote=Anonymous]Last year my kid applied to 9 schools. I would describe 2 as safeties, 2 as targets, and 5 as reaches. I am not sure that’s how he would have bucketed them. He received 5 acceptances and 4 rejections. My one piece of wisdom/advice is that as you offer input on the application list, recognize that more schools on the list means more possible rejections. Your kid will need more resilience to stay optimistic and keep it all in perspective. [/quote]
