[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We all know that the selective schools are a crapshoot and you cannot have your kid fixated on one dream school because the odds are getting into any particular one is low. BUT, you also hear that they should apply ED somewhere where they would increase their chances of getting in just by applying ED. So, they will spend at least a month or two completely focused on their ED application, ED supplements, the interview, etc. for that one school and get emotionally invested in that school. For most kids, they will be deferred or rejected by that school. In my kid's case, they were rejected by their early school and decided to apply to 20 schools after that. It was a lot of work and took up their entire winter break. I wouldn't call it fun. If they had gotten into their ED school, they probably would have thought it was all fine and not that bad.[/quote] This[/quote]
