[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You mean "if your high-scorer didn't get in anywhere you deem acceptable: where are they now?" Because the premise is that the kid DID go to college. The horror of having to go to a target or safety.[/quote] It’s a reasonable question. College admissions are a crap shoot for a lot of kids and there are some high stats kids who don’t get into places where you think they would.[/quote] IMO, even high stats, if a school has a less than 20% acceptance rate, you should assume you will get rejected, then be surprised if you gain admission. So focus on finding the best Target and safeties for your kid. And not all targets should be 26% acceptance rates with your kid at 50%. some should be where your kid is at/above 75/80% and closer to 40% acceptance. DO that and you will get admitted. [/quote]
