[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My older kid is a very high stats kid, competitive, really wants an Ivy (and won't get it). And the process sucks. I look forward to going through it with my younger kid, who gets B+'s, is relaxed, has very specific interests, and won't be aiming for top schools. I feel like there will be tons of great options for him, which is ironic since my super hard-working kid should theoretically have many more.[/quote] I'm going through the process now with a similar child and, so far, it hasn't been stressful. She knew what kind of school she wanted, identified a first choice school that admits 70% of applicants, and is applying ED. Anything is possible and if she doesn't get in we'll have to reassess, but I like her odds -- certainly better than a straight A student who fell in love with a school with a 5% acceptance rate.[/quote]
