[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Different poster.  Legacy.  DD rejected from Duke.  Applied ED and rejected in RD round.  Not happy to see all of this waitlist movement.  I see you, Enraged.   [/quote]

DP. yeah, it's feeling incredibly, incredibly random this year.
I know a half dozen kids who were waitlisted or rejected.  Same level kids.  Some given waitlist spots, some given rejection spots. Now the waitlisted ones have a second life. [/quote]

That's life. It sucks. Some people face this disappointment early in life, and others later. Sorry for all of these kids, in this crazy year.

It's also why you apply to 20+ schools in RD. This is proof that have a small list screws you over.
Hint: don't listen to the posters who tell you to only apply to 3-4 reaches.
My kid applied to 22 (yes 22) schools. Including 12 reaches.
Happy with the T10 outcome.[/quote]

For top of the class kids [b]CCO[/b] encourages 2 safeties, 2-3 matches and 6-8 "reach for everyone" (they have a list of 11 schools, 7 of the ivies and 4 others, that are reach for everyone from that high school, though half are slightly easier ED which is encourage if you like one of them that much).
