[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Don't be so mean to OP. A kid can have a reasonable college application plan, endorsed by school counselors, with some reaches and some safeties, and just have colossally bad luck. It's all probabilities. A college application plan that seems 99.9% likely to result in at least on acceptance can still fail. [/quote] +1 Every year this happens to 1-2 high achieving kids whose safeties and matches are watching their yields. My own DC had multiple RD elite acceptances after a horrible early round but waitlisted at the safeties and lower end matches. And this was before the RD round got impossible a few years back. Go figure.[/quote] Exactly. I’m surprised it’s just 1-2 kids per school. The RD round seems almost impossible these days.[/quote]
