[quote=Anonymous]We are good - ds applied to a reach he really likes but says he will be fine if he gets rejected or deferred. I honestly hope he does not ED2 unless he has a clear #2 by then. He also applied EA to a few schools.  Even if he ends up applying to another 10-12 schools, I don't think doing the supps will be too bad - he's been jotting down ideas and researching schools as he goes along. I am glad he hasn't actually written out the supps for his RD schools because the more he learns about those schools and himself, the better they will be. Sure, winter break may be spent doing that, but big deal. It pains me that so many kids are caught up in the "dream school" thing - when early decisions come out at my kids' school, there are always tears as only around 50% of kids there get into their ED/REA/SCEA. There are so many great schools, no need to get wrapped up in just one or two. And I think when parents are going to feel "devastated" if their kids do not get in, they have lost the plot and are doing their children and family life a great disservice.[/quote]
