[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s so so painful. Why don’t people really explain this to us. Almost like childbirth. The mental toll is unfathomable if you haven’t gone through it.[/quote] I underestimated the number of essays and short responses. Holy f@“k! Everyone goes on and on about the common app essay—but then you get in the process and realize so many schools have 3-5 additional short essays, long essay, prompts, short answers, etc. and many are too different to adapt from other essays. [/quote] Exactly. And our kids’ private is basically encouraging applying widely if ED does not go well. Very very very widely. 12 apps in and they said send 8 more at least after mid-Dec… Which means a lot more stupid essays in the next four weeks.[/quote] 20 apps?!? At a private?[/quote] Our private saying it’s going to be a tough year…. So apply to 15-20[/quote]
