[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Surprised that most posters are applying to fewer than 10. Is it only high stats kids apply to 10+? [/quote] My understanding is that many private schools (at least the Independent Schools) have a limit of 10 (and that was increased from 7 for some of them). For non-private school families, more than 10 would be expensive (and the advice we are getting from our public school is 3 safeties, 3-4 target/matches, 1-3 reaches), which gets you in the 7-10 range.[/quote] Not true. Our high stat child. 4.56 GPA Act 35( science 36, math 36), good EC applting to only 7 after got into Upitt. No ivy on the list, 2 reach other targets.[/quote] Why are you saying "not true"? ibt sounds like you are confirming what the previous poster said--your kid is applying to 7 schools. That poster was explaining (to the prior poster) why many in the area are applying to fewer than 10....[/quote]
