[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My daughter did well in the small setting, because it was less intimidating and required her to step up. Having said that, you are falling into the trap of only discussing very selective schools. Remember to visit and praise some less elite schools also, or we may be hearing you lament one year from now like many who have come before you. (Check out St Olaf’s for example)[/quote] 100% this. Your post seems to be reflecting his denial. The schools you list are great, but he now needs to complete the other 2/3 of his list (with less selective schools, where he will have a much better chance of getting in). This is not a diss on your child or his accomplishments. BUT, he has to realize that the VAST majority of kids who apply to those schools (many of whom are JUST like him), get rejected. Focus on that.[/quote]
