[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Nobody can really predict how it will go with the reaches. You need solid safeties and targets. At my kid’s school a few kids with this profile got into reaches and many more dud not. Make sure the list covers all bases.[/quote] DP: the problem is that, for students like OP's kid and mine, there are reaches and safeties, there are no targets. So you need 2-3 safeties where the kid will thrive (though is unlikely to love a priori), and a long list of reaches in the T20 to T30. People say don't shotgun, but with such randomness in the system, it's hard not to. The problem is that applying broadly is very time consuming, as even schools that say they don't track demonstrated interest want to see that you know and love them. Stinks but there we are. [/quote]
