[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]NP. Rigorous and Competitive Private school outside DMV (with many Ivy admits already): This is an odd conversation. Don’t schools have different priorities? Some might need a (top stats) kid with your kids’ major /skills/ special pointy EC interests, while others won’t? That’s why applying widely and not falling in love with any school is recommended. 25-30 schools is the new normal if your kid is not 3.9+ uw - and more like 3.77-3.9…..i have been told these are the kids that need to apply more widely than others……[/quote] I have a Senior (private school) with an uw 4.0/4.5, 35 ACT, all 5 APs—-and I know of nobody that applied to that many schools. My kid probably applied to the most of any friends, classmates at 17 apps. He originally had about 7-10, but over break added a bunch more reaches only. [/quote]
