[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Do kids really just apply to an ED school and wait around until then? I haven’t seen or heard that, most are applying to multiple colleges even if there’s an ED application in the mix.[/quote] Mine last year applied ED along with just one or two EAs because most of his list only had ED. So, I wouldn't say he was waiting exactly but he had a super busy senior year, like so many kids, and didn't really buckle down to do all the other supplementals until after being turned down ED. I would definitely advise against that but that's where he found himself. He ended up applying to a total of 20 schools, almost all of which had supplemental essays-maybe 18 of the 20-and got into a lot more than I expected RD. So it was tough, but it worked. I wish I weren't like this, and I wish my son hadn't inherited this quality from me, but some of us work best under a little pressure.[/quote]
