[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s so so painful.

Why don’t people really explain this to us. Almost like childbirth.

The mental toll is unfathomable if you haven’t gone through it.[/quote]

I underestimated the number of essays and short responses.  Holy f@“k! Everyone goes on and on about the common app essay—but then you get in the process and realize so many schools have 3-5 additional short essays, long essay, prompts, short answers, etc. and many are too different to adapt from other essays.

So many writing prompts! [/quote]

HA Oh—that was my post from last year :)!!!  Omg. Yes. And my son did 12 out of 16 apps the 2 weeks of Xmas break.

He ended up thinking he wasn’t getting in anywhere after being deferred from top choice EA to getting in almost all of them (3 off WLs)—so yes spring was just as stressful running around to admitted student events and then making a decision but then a new offer, etc.  after losing a $900 deposit in mid-May it was finally over.

And I get to do it again next year.

Good luck 2025s!!![/quote]
