[quote=Anonymous]My DD is a senior at a local private known to be very rigorous and she has strong scores, grades and several AP/Honors classes. Her counselor thinks that she is a strong ED candidate for several top LACs (think Bowdoin) but she doesn't want to go ED because she really loves her safety/likely schools and isn't willing to take them off of her list by committing to a place now. She may end up at one of those "average" schools and, if so, would be quite happy and likely get some merit money. One is a place I had never heard of before but it has programs she's interested in and a fun and quirky student body, much like her. Why would I steer her away from that just to prove to a random stranger that she's smart enough to get into Bowdoin? [/quote]
