[quote=Anonymous]1) I didn’t really put much stock in the idea of kids “just knowing” a school was right for them on visiting but it happened to my kid and gave him a degree of motivation with regard to essays etc that surprised me. On paper the school wasn’t that different than many others we had visited. 2) My kid had excellent grades and scores, strongish but not amazing ECs and he picked a good school but one that is basically a straight up target rather than any kind of reach for him. A tiny part of me was inexplicably a bit disappointed he didn’t aim “higher” but I told that part to shut up. He’s very pleased with outcome and I think that he was wise to know that although he may have gotten into one of the higher ranked schools he was considering his personality fits better with the school he chose [/quote]
