[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kid has a rough time in Covid but a silver lining has been this: if you let go of the idea of going to a "top" or competitive school, the process is actually easy and fairly stress-free (and you'll get a lot of merit money too). There are a ton of schools with high acceptance rates that are eager to have your kid.[/quote] This. My son is a good student but at a private school. His GPA when he applied was probably a 3.1 with a weighted GPA of 3.4. He has gotten in everywhere he applied because he chose schools he could get into. He has gotten great merit money from some good schools. None of it was as bad as I expected. Ditto on the do as much as possible before senior year starts. He hit submit on his applications on October 8th which was a huge relief to get it done so early. [/quote]
