[quote=Anonymous]Maret had at least 6-7 kids admitted to Northwestern last year between ED and RD. Another year 4 went to Penn so I don’t know if only 4 got in. I will say that the advising the students received was consistent and similar to what other independent schools recommended which was to apply to a range of schools BUT to schools you can really see yourself at because of what it offers and it’s fit for the student not just isit an Ivy, a top 10 or 20 school. These schools all have different academic and social cultures, different geographic locations, academic requirements, etc. MIT is very different from Stanford which is very different from Harvard who is very different from Princeton which is very different from Northwestern which is very different from Duke, etc. Help your kid narrow their choices for the right reasons. Learning to pick what right for you based on your own self knowledge and awareness will pay off in life. [/quote]
