[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]^ Fine, but the poster at 10:38 said H and S were "safeties," and I call B.S. on that. And a 50% chance is far from being a safety.[/quote] +1000 I suspect other PP is trolling us.[/quote] [b]What little you both know.[/b][/quote] well tell us then - how is Harvard and Stanford a safety for someone with a 50% chance of getting in?[/quote] [b]How clear could the poster be?[/b] They applied early action! Once in they could apply regular admission to the place they really wanted to go, and dispense with the schools that would otherwise have been safeties. It was a strategy. My son did the same, albeit at a lower level. He applied rolling to a school pitched too high to be a safety for him, but once admitted, knocked off all his wouldbe safeties and focused on reaches. [/quote] ? The poster said H and S were "safeties." That's the assertion that was being questioned.[/quote]
