[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]That it's really easy to get into college if you're a good student with pretty good scores but not top scores (in this case a 1400). My ds got in everywhere he applied but one college as a normal kid who picked easier APs and enjoyed his life without stress. I was so worried and thought it would be a lot harder than it was.[/quote] This should be the number one takeaway. I would say not only will a kid get into a “good” college doing this, but even a “very good” college if applying ED1. No need for any of this nonsense to get into a “great” or “elite” college, especially when most of those applicants will fail and join you at your same type of college anyhow.[/quote]
