[quote=Anonymous]For my D, mistake was probably applying to too many colleges. She applied to 12 (4 safeties, 4 matches, 4 reaches). In the end, there were a bunch of filler colleges in there due to indecision about what she wanted. I think a lot of kids do this because of the fear of not getting in anywhere. Naviance turned out to be very accurate - largish high school with many kids gunning for STEM. There were 3 that made the cut that she chose from (1 super reach, 1 low reach/high match, and 1 safety). [/quote]
