[quote=Anonymous]Senior parent here. I posted a lessons-learned thread a month or two back, but this process was really eye-opening. 22:10 has some great advice. A few more: 1. Naviance is worthless. Things have completely changed test optional. If a school has a 30% admission rate, it means nothing that your kid is well above the 75% stats. 2. Visit safety/target schools. Only visit reach schools unless thinking to apply ED. I keep seeing people taking their kid to visit every Ivy. 3. If you hire a college consultant, find one your kid likes and just stick with that. Too much advice is paralyzing 4. There is no magic formula to get into "top" schools. What works for one kid does not work for the next. [/quote]
