[quote=Anonymous]They need to get rid of the common app and have individual applications for schools. The common app makes it very easy to apply to many many schools. And as the number of applications goes up and admit rates go down, kids apply to more and more because it's a total crapshoot. I know one kid who applied to 20 schools last year- looked like he was going to Vermont and then gets into Berkeley after being rejected at most every place else. When you hear stories like that, it's hard to argue with applying to a ton of schools- if you can afford it. [/quote]
