[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It would be next to impossible for her to get into 5 of her choices, and I don’t want her to feel really bad about her backup choices. [/quote] Five is a lot of reach schools. How many "match" schools does she have? Safety schools? I have liked the advice to make sure the student has at least one safety that they could happily see themselves at. Then if she doesn't get into her reach schools (not too surprising), and even worse, doesn't get into her match schools (much more surprising), there's still an outcome that she can live with.[/quote] 5 is not a lot of reach schools if you are a top student applying high. 2, however, is a very low number of match schools.[/quote]
