[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’ll pass on the admissions police. Just accept that the process is imperfect and deal with it - I know some of you don’t want to hear this but admissions decisions do not define your child. [/quote] +1 A kid who has the "resume for T25 lottery ticket" can easily get into plenty of excellent schools in the 30-60 range. Adjust your mindset from "Harvard or bust" to, it's a lottery pick a few in the T25 you would like to attend and apply, but focus your real applications on your targets and safeties and find ones you really like and can afford. If you do that, you will not be disappointed. My 1480/3.95UW/10AP kid got into all of the engineering programs they applied to except those in the T25/30. Many excellent choices, most with great merit awards. It went exactly as we expected, sure diappointment for not getting into the reaches, but they are reaches for a reason. [/quote]
