[quote=Anonymous]Targets are a challenge for high stats kids, because all of the schools that are one or two notches less insanely competitive than the Ivy+ schools - like Tufts or BC - themselves admit a fairly low percentage of applicants. And some of the ones with less daunting admissions rates, like Tulane or Wake, are really heavy on ED. In OP's shoes, I'd forget about the Hail Mary reaches and try to ED at a target school. That isn't consistent with merit, but most of the target schools the OP mentioned and have been suggested here don't offer merit aid. If merit is the priority, the OP should be pushing her kid toward safeties already on her list or those mentioned here. [/quote]
