[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I feel like you all should wait for RD before you claim how schools have done with admissions goes this year.  There is a marked shift in ED/EA - with many more defers (and rejections) than in the past - but none of us knows how those EA/ED deferrals will play out in in the RD round or how all the submitted RD applications will go.[/quote]

I completely agree with you. Anybody saying admissions is "grim" at this point is probably a troll.[/quote]

LOL - I'm PP you agreed with. I wouldn't actually call those people trolls because it really does feel quite icky right now. I am trying to keep my own positive narrative of patience and hope (and sharing it in my post above) - but I fully recognize that many families currently feel grim (the same is true for DMV public and frankly, families we know all over the country!).

I think everyone needs to take a breath. My daughter at NCS and her friends have all been accepted to multiple places. They may not be their first choice and that will be revealed in the spring, but everyone needs to breathe until March.
Perhaps it depends on how high the students were reaching. My daughter is not the top of the class but has had zero rejections so far and she is not alone.
It’s a reminder to parents to help their child find true likely schools so no one is panicking after the ED/EA rounds.

Exactly. We don't even use the term "safety". Your kid needs to be excited about all the schools they applied to and that attitude starts at home with the parents. Every school has its positives, focus on that when discussing options.[/quote]
