[quote=Anonymous]got (and took) hints to apply early to Penn - if your kid is in the top tier but there are still kids with 'more perfect' grades & scores & activities (& connections/legacies with schools) in his class, it can be a good option to show the school you are will take the spot that's given (ie. Penn & some of the other 'tier 2 ivies & similar like to take lots of their kids from this area early so they don't get seen as the 'safety school' for the Harvard pool)[/quote]
