[quote=Anonymous]Life is too short and the process too unpredictable to not approach college admissions systematically. Plenty of rolling admissions schools that offer a great education. Apply to 1 or preferably 2 rolling admission early in the process. Then pick 3 or 4 safety schools ( greater than 75% admit rate) 3 or 4 target schools (where your stats GPA and test score place near or above the 50% range) and 3 or 4 reach schools (less than 30% acceptance rate). Apply RD if you have a school you have fallen in love with and EA where you can. Unless admitted by ED school enjoy the holiday season and rest of your senior with 1 or more admissions in hand early. Visit as many admitted student days as you can and decide in May. Love one of the schools that showed they wanted you. [/quote]
