[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]1 safety. [b]19 reaches. Why not? [/b]It is a lottery and u should go for it as long as you have the safety.  [/quote]

but what 19 schools are "reaches" for someone with perfect grades and SAT scores?  Nevermind answering that, but there shouldn't be [/quote]

Any school with less than a 20% admittance rate is classified as a reach, no matter the stats. This comes straight from our private college counselor.

Besides, the top schools generally expect spectacular ECs in addition to top scores. [/quote]

My kid has perfect GPA, prefect SAT, very impressive ECs (but not spectacular).  Asian-American male.  Even the safety is a very highly rated school (and he is in). He has applied to other schools just to see if he gets in or not. I guess he was bored and wanted to waste some of my money for kicks.  My kid does not have a single reach according to Naviance. Every single college is a match or safety :lol:  :lol:  :lol: What a load of BS.[/quote]
