[quote=Anonymous]I don’t get why anyone is hurt by a rejection from a school that has a very small acceptance rate. Do you really think your kid is so much more special than the tens of thousands of applicants? It’s not personal, it CANT be personal. They don’t actually know your kid—they can get an idea based on their stats and essays and recs, but even those aren’t 100% accurate representations of your kid. A high SAT kid may have taken the test 8 times. A kid with amazing essays may have had a college counselor edit with a heavy heavy hand. A kid could have been the president of a club, but what if that club met once every month and the kid skipped it a few times. Try not to get hurt. It’s a sucky process, but move on and don’t wallow [/quote]
