Already accepted to all with tons of merit [/quote]

That’s great to hear! Those are all solid schools.[/quote]

Right and sadly PP’s kid won’t go to any of them, but there were classmates of the kid who were rejected from each of these schools because PP’s kid was one of the 18-20 kids that school accepted. And now some senior is sad because they didn’t get into their reach school due to PPs kid collecting acceptances like trophies that will go on a shelf.

Sorry but if people stopped doing this and actually exercised some discernment in applying to only 2-3 safeties, it would really help other kids in this process. [/quote]

Wrong. I am the PP whose kid this is. We are a donut hole NOVA family. Kid has a couple of dream schools. Unless kid gets into one of them, which is very, very unlikely, they are taking one of the nearly full-ride merit awards at one of these schools which they are very happy to attend - they have very solid programs in their intended major.

+1.  Per our FCPS info in Naviance there are almost no kids applying to the majority of safeties my kid applied to since many are OOS. [/quote]
