[quote=Anonymous]OP, We are sadly in the era of major over-achievement for top colleges. Even when your student thinks they're doing a lot, someone is doing more and doing it better. Such is life. I do think the effort your child puts into academics is probably very well-preparing them for college academics. You are still quite early in the admission season, don't loose heart if an ED1 doesn't work out and tough as it is, ignore others' results. Admissions is wacky these days. My kid got into a top 15 for this fall, but was rejected at a couple top 50s. The rejections came before the admission so we were freaking out as my kid didn't love their liklies. On that note, don't blow off visiting liklies--try to find at least one to love (or at least like a lot). Good luck!![/quote]
