[quote=Anonymous]My similar kid (senior now) was going to apply to 16. That was the list at the beginning of the summer. Included 3 safeties and almost no targets. The reality is that’s REALLY hard, if you have a summer with a couple weeks away and a busy fall (with sports and leadership and full schedule of classes). He dropped a safety that we never visited first, which was fine because we truly liked his other safeties and he would have gone. Ended up doing 1 ED, 8 EAs and was going to do 1 RD (that didn’t have an EA option) but got in to his ED. My advice is keep the list big, see how the essays overlap, and try as many as she can get done well. But quality over quantity. [/quote]
