[quote=Anonymous] We went through college admissions last year. No one I know, NO ONE, was chill about it. In this day and age, chill does not exist for the families who are aware of what all this entails. Sure, your kid can only apply to safeties, go test-optional, chatGPT their essays. Perhaps the family doesn't fill out financial aid forms. But the kid still need to request letters of recs, transcripts, they still need apply by the deadline, and the Common App has questions few 17 year olds know how to answer about their parents' education... unless they guesstimate that too. So the only ones who are chill are the ones who are half-assing it. That IS a legit strategy if you're happy with where they end up, and money is no object, or if they're applying to community college. But usually parents are a little more demanding, given that college is a lot of money for most households. [/quote]
