[quote=Anonymous]I have a child in this cycle - third one - but so far not nearly as bad as the my child who applied in the 2022-23 cycle. So much deferral still from COVID, height of the population bump, and lots of grade inflation. Not a single one of her friends got in off the waitlist anywhere. She did not get into any of her reaches but is so happy at the target school she did get into. And the last two years have had so much more waitlist movement and better results for our school. EDs at this point are highly competitive and there are some many factors at play. Applying to college is a little like gambling - you never know what is going to work! Hang in there - they will end up where they were meant to end up. I truly do believe that. And learning that lesson helps build resilience. [/quote]
