[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Unless you are going to Harvard, you are settling. Settling is okay. Even for the overachieving DC crowd. DD was in a similar situation. She ended up getting waitisted by her number 1 and ended up in a different city, but she is excited about it. Visiting schools AFTER being accepted is a whole different experience. That's when DD trade her decision.[/quote] This is a silly statement. My daughter got into Harvard and chose a different school. Contrary to what you seem to believe, Harvard is not everyone's "dream school". [/quote] +1. DC refused to even tour Harvard when we were up in Boston, let alone apply to Harvard. DC was accepted at a college that takes 6-7% of applicants (as opposed to Harvard which takes 5-6% of applicants). No "settling."[/quote]
