[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think 10-12 is a good number (3 reach/4 prob/3 safety), so 13 is not far off. Obv you need a mix of reach, probables and safeties, and nowadays even with naviance it is not easy to predict the probables so you can't just apply to one in each category, or you could wind up with no options! [/quote] Agree. I would be uncomfortable if my kid only applied to 3. [/quote] My kid applied to only 2. 2-3 may make sense if DC is doing EA or ED and ends up getting a yes at that stage. Even SCEA lets applicants apply to public and/or foreign schools early and some have rolling admissions. So you can hedge your bets early and then opt out of RD if you get what you want in the first round. Basically, there's no one-size-fits-all right answer to OP's question. [/quote]
