[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]When you get to the day where you, your kid, and the counselor have to sign the ED contract, you will probably then understand why many kids don't. If your kid has a nearly perfect record, then yes, you should pick your favorite and go for it. If your kid has a clear favorite in a less competitive school and is well qualified for it, yes, give it a go. But for most kids, there is a level of uncertainty that makes ED to the dream school foolish, but hope still alive for RD to that school. When faced with giving up the dream school to ED to a more sure thing, that is a tough call to make. [/quote] Why would ED to the dream school be foolish though if you can still apply to other schools EA and do an ED 2? Is it just the idea that the kid is getting their hopes up on a longshot? If the kid recognizes that, what’s the downside? [/quote]
