[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What is the rationale for limiting to 8-10? A cost saving move by the school to limit time spent sending records? [b]Or a desire to make kids think more strategically about their options?[/b] Or an equity issue, not everyone can afford to apply to 20 schools? Or something else? [/quote] the bolded is the main reason There is simply no rational reason, for example, to apply to "all the Ivys" - I mean some are urban, others rural, some have very rigid curricular requirements and some are very open. In other words, there are huge differences among the schools, so you have to look under the hood to see what the applicants preferences are.[/quote]
