[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why this can't or should not happen: 1. Schools make way too much money from the application fees. They are not going to ask for applications be to be cut down. 2. Schools love to say they are "competitive" because 100,000 people applied for 3,000 spots or whatever. No matter if 90,000 did not have the stats in the first place! The school now looks competitive to anyone who loves highly rejective schools. 3. For those who need to merit shop, they need to apply to a wide range of schools. We were among those. Kids applied to Tuition Exchange schools, schools where kids would be eligible for merit, etc. [/quote] PS: That said, one of our kids applied to 13 schools and did not need to apply to 20. So, there is that. [/quote]
