[quote=Anonymous]Not your job. Let them do it. My high school guidance counselor was appalled by the selection of schools I decided to apply for because he thought I was being too ambitious, and tried to get me to apply to several schools I thought were well beneath my qualifications, as "safety" schools. He didn't think I'd get in to the ones I'd chosen. I ended up going to the top Ivy school on my list. I was a white girl from rural America - I'm sure it was the rural part that helped, but I'd like to think my essays and recommendations were also factors. You never know. [/quote]
