[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What is the rationale for limiting to 8-10? A cost saving move by the school to limit time spent sending records? Or a desire to make kids think more strategically about their options? Or an equity issue, not everyone can afford to apply to 20 schools? Or something else? [/quote] It's about increasing the kids' odds. Because these schools no how to game the system so that students are more likely to be admitted. If you want to benefit from the expertise that places like this have in getting their kids placed, you need to play by their rules. [/quote]
