[quote=Anonymous]My lesson learned: 1) Apply to a rolling admission safety school that is good in your area early. For example, DD applied to a mid-western state school which is top 10 in her field (Iowa State), and was admitted within two weeks. That reduced stress. Had she done it earlier (she sent it in around 10/5), she would not have applied to 4 other safeties (Mich state, Miami - Ohio, Indiana, Delaware). 2) If there is a school that you like more than any other, and can afford, ED. DD did that, ED2, at her preferred school. Stats wise, she was 50-50, but that is where she is going. 3) Do not get caught up in the prestige game...focus on the good fit for the jid.[/quote]
