[quote=Anonymous]Our younger one applied but got waitisted at older sibling's very competitive university. Strong applicant grade wise (more APs and slightly higher grades than older sibling, STEM) but it never seemed like their heart was truly in it applying to that school. When kid saw weightlist, they said "oh, ok" as if someone were giving them directions to a building up the street. No big deal. Not upset at all, moving on, closed laptop and went to grab a snack. Turns out kid saw school as their older sibling's school and wanted to make their own mark elsewhere at a place that's all their own. A place where nobody in our family has gone, it's all new, they're not following in our footsteps. And the school they chose is the perfect fit for them. I have a new yard flag in our college flag collection. Sometimes it's as simple as your kid not wanting to be their sibling.[/quote]
