[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Well I hesitate to say this because I know it will feed the crazy but I know a few people who quit their jobs in order to manage the college application process (my sister, for one, did this). Starting in 9th grade.[/quote] As someone who is currently going through the application process, I can completely understand this!! [/quote] As someone else who is currently going through this, I cannot. Yeah, some leave, but what do you do to fill all that time? Stand over your child with a carrot and a stick?[/quote] Well it worked for my sister. She got one unhooked precious into Stanford and the other into Duke. They are good all around kids (good scores and all that) but nothing stands out about them in any way (no musical debuts at Carnegie Hall and such). I don't know what wizardry she pulled off to get them in. I understand your chances are close to nil even with perfect grades and test scores.[/quote]
