[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Plenty of people apply to the Ivies and then keep quiet about it. [/quote] +1 [/quote] We are only quiet because of the reaction from others. They ask where your kid is applying and if you mention any ivues or top schools you get weird responses and attitudes. We really don’t care about rejection from Ivies. It’s a lottery. We will buy the lottery ticket (application fee). My son exceeds the academic requirements- grades, test scores, great ECs/recs, 5s on all APs, etc. so it’s not personal if rejected. He understands that and doesn’t have a clear front runner or hopes tied to any particular school which I think is the best way to go about it. And, of course, he is applying to safeties too. A mixed list.[/quote]
