[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Class of 2025: one rolling (so had admission to safety in hand), two EAs, one ED. If[b] you build your list thoughtfully, there is no reason to apply to more than 12.[/b][/quote] Wrong. [/quote] DP, but I 100% agree with the PP. If your kid is applying to more than 15 or so (and even that's a stretch), I'm going to think that either A) they were lazy and didn't run NPCs to find actually affordable + attainable schools; B) they were lazy and didn't do the work to find "very likely" schools they'd actually be good going to; C) you turned them into a prestige hunter. E.g. anyone whose kid applied to both Columbia AND Dartmouth, or Penn AND Brown — or, god forbid, every Ivy — did it wrong.[/quote]
