[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I cannot believe how juvenile seniors and some parents are when it comes to hanging everything on a single tour guide.

And parents allow this? [/quote]

Because we were all seniors once and there are _so_ many colleges out there. I ruled out Brown because it felt depressing. My mom was upset and made me visit again, but it didn’t help. I ended up attending a different competitive college (HYPMS).

I wouldn’t let my kid apply ED to one of these schools if he were a recruit and great fit at my alma mater.  But if a school meets the minimum requirements (program he wants to study, size and location), I’m not worried that he’s swayed by the somewhat silly factors that influence a 16 or 17 year old. It’ll be fine. I’m focused on grad school. [/quote]
Also, because there are so many schools and so many possible combinations for a nice, “balanced list,” kids should be arbitrary. What matters is that they end up with a good list of schools they can be happy attending; it doesn’t matter so much how they got there.[/quote]
