[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]1500+ SAT all As at highly regarded private (school doesn’t offer AP classes but DC took 4 and got 4s and 5s). Varsity sport, leadership in ECs. Legacy - rejected. Waitlisted at all others. No acceptances today. Brutal. [/quote] If your kid is wsitlisted at all the other schools they applied to, it seems they weren't realistic.[/quote] Is it not realistic to think your kid with above stats should get in somewhere decent/competitive?[/quote] My kid has 1560 and 4.0uw, you can't expect anything. You can hope, but you need to cast a wide net. Competitive schools have stellar kids applying and can fill their class many times over with high stats kids. If OP's kid it wsitlisted everywhere they applied, yes, they had unrealistic expectations.[/quote]
