[quote=Anonymous]Mom of identical twins applying this year. It's hard. I don't really think there is much you can do to make it less hard. And right now (to them) it feels so much bigger than the other disappointments along the way. I had a friend doing this last year and she advised me not to let them have any overlap schools - which of course didn't work out. We are just focusing on the differences - different majors, different ECs - that sort of thing. And reiterating what a crapshoot in can be (it has helped that some friends who are v. strong students have also received disappointing news. I mean, we're sad for the friends, but it helps them see that all of this is hard to predict). And we are also really talking up the schools that they have gotten into. But it is still hard and they will be sad. [/quote]
