[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’ll take an opposite approach here. Yes - line up the apps by due date. Make sure all the high school requests like transcripts are in by Tuesday if not done yet. Hopefully she requested her LORs. If not, some publics don’t require. I’d look at all the supplements and do some research to give to DD to work off of. With someone helping, she may be less overwhelmed, which may be the issue.[/quote] I was about to say the same. Does she have the common app essay done? Hopefully! Perhaps, you (or another adult) could read it over and offer a little feedback. For supplemental essays, as pp mentioned, you can help by doing some research on aspects of the schools that may draw your kid -- programs, faculty, etc. She can follow up on what resonates with her to add to the different supplements. Also agree she should check with counselor about transcripts and recs Tues. She may want to go in late or come home early Tues to finish up the 1/4 apps. If they have supplements, they will need a lot of investment, and she'll need breaks. It might be worth missing 1 day of some classes for her to have the extra time. She may also want to drop one of those and add some with later deadlines. She can do this. Good luck![/quote]
