[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No. Last year’s admissions process was a sh!tshow. My son was WL at one of his target schools and rejected from from another target school. He got in at two safeties and received merit from both; he is very happy where he landed and it really is a good fit.[/quote] I think the lesson is not that last year was a "sh!show" but maybe rather that people aren't accurately assessing targets vs. safeties. [/quote] You would be wrong.[/quote] It seems if you only got into your safeties and none of your targets, your assessments were wrong somehow. I know so many people who were shocked about their kids results, but I wasn’t, because GPA and SATs are not the whole picture. [/quote] Only getting into safeties would be an expected result. That is not what people are talking about from last year.[/quote]
