[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have a high stats kid (jr) who is being recruited. An offer just came pending a pre read approval. Kid will pass the pre read and then a second one after junior year, which kid should also pass. Counselor said kid could likely get into many top schools bc kid has a great profile: arts, national awards, sport, rigor, good gpa and sat, leadership, excellent ECs, and recs should be good. Counselor at school is very experienced and knowledgeable. Would you encourage a jr to accept a spot at a #20 school but give up trying for a better one? Kid wants school first and sport second but kid likely won’t be recruitable at a school ranked less than #20. Kid likes the school (and is actively recruited by other good schools) but loved an ivy we visited. Bird in the hand? Kid is asking what we think.
