[quote=Anonymous]My kid got into their ED1 school so in the end only applied to 3 schools- 2 safeties (one rolling, one EA) and then the ED1 whuch had a less than 20% acceptance rate this year. They had above the average for overall SAT but their math was below the 50th (very high EBRW). They were not an athlete or a crazy standout for anything. Very involved in schools theater program (not majoring in theater), part time job, some volunteering, and other club involvement at school. We had a plan for ED2 if ED1 didn’t work out, and then more RD apps including in state options. I’m relieved that it worked out! With acceptance rates dropping at many top schools, even a school where your child falls in the upper area doesn’t mean it’s a safety if the acceptance rate is lower. [/quote]
