[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]With a 1510, OP’s kid can be selective. The only reason to move down the list would be if they need merit aid[/quote] I guess you have not been paying attention to the last few months’ posts.[/quote] Yes. Take a look at some of the threads about “things I wish we’d done differently“ and a big one is- choose lots of safeties/fits and then really like them! Don’t just assume your kid will get into a “top LAC” and then stop looking. If you think a small LAC is a good idea for him (and fwiw, I do, esp if he’s shy) then explore a bunch on the list a PP helpfully provided. I know that it’s tempting to think MY kid will get in, they’re amazing!, look at that SAT score! But sadly that isn’t a slam dunk and you want to have lots of choices next April when it’s decision time. Good luck, OP. Your kid sounds neat. Take a deep breath and step away from the rankings insanity. [/quote]
