[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, none of us know if your son will get accepted. If he has a strong preference for one of those LAC colleges you listed, apply ED. He definitely has a shot, but be realistic and have other easier-admit choices that your son would be happy at! You mentioned Pitt, good option maybe add a few more that he loves. [/quote] Also, to add: have him work magic on his essays. You mentioned he has a strong sense of his personality and drive, colleges really like this. [/quote] Essays matter very little for the most part...unless they are awful and then it's a negative. You can see the stats on the weight essays are given at any particular school. Most first have a hard merit/academic cutoff before the essays are even read--application forwarded.[/quote]
