[quote=Anonymous]Oh please stop it already. Sending a first choice letter is a good thing and ya da ya da ya da on your kid’s merit. Do you not think every kid doesn’t have merit. First choice is affirming what it is and a good data point. You are not bothering anyone because it just goes into the file. Letter of support is also good if it is a family who really knows your child. I really feel for parents who are applying their kids because it is hard to get in some of these schools. There are a lot of smart and accomplished kids in the DMV. Figuring out a way to stand out positively is a good life skill. I would talk this through with your child to see if he or she wants to affirm a first choice. If you do not have a clear first choice then do not submit one. You can still get into schools without one but it is something to consider. [/quote]
