[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Crazy way to pick a college. The supplemental essays are usually quite short. This is a bad sign for how hard your kid is willing to work for his goals.[/quote] Kids and specifically their helicopter parents nowadays are more interested in shot gunning and shortcuts.[/quote] Yep, this is us for sure. I'm not even joking. I personally believe the US college app game is a farce and needlessly over complicated and more stressful than it needs to be. You bet my child will be taking the most simplistic route possible for college apps. It works for us since DC isn't some hypercompetitive über achiever. DC is doing a major that will get excellent job prospects regardless of where they go to college, lol. So as long as DC gets into some decent options, we're good. But it's very amusing watching the hoops others go through.[/quote]
