[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not PP but similar experience at Stone Ridge except DD did not get into ED. [b]She is doing okay because she and her CC worked out a good strategy and also applied to some schools EA (which she got into)[/b]. She is debating following up with another 1-2 RD applications. No expectation of true counseling over break as plans were made ahead of time for all sorts of scenarios.

And I’m not sure why you assume someone like Pp (or me by extension) is someone who has been complaining for years but is now suddenly happy. I think we just had reasonable expectations and the CC did a solid job with our daughter. [/quote]

Key word here is that your daughter got into SOME schools EA. There are kids currently which have been rejected from every single school so far and have needed to change their list and add more. This is very reasonable. I know a few in that boat right now. Kids at much less rigorous schools getting admitted because they have higher gpas. This is not my kid btw but I feel sorry for those kids who I know are taking very rigorous course loads and have very high STAs or ACTs but are getting hit with low gpas in comparison to other applicants from this area...[/quote]
