[quote=Anonymous]A close friend’s high score DC made the mistake of applying to all super reaches with one safety and ended up at the safety (RIT), which is still an excellent school. DC goes to the same school one grade lower, she heard his mistake was he didn’t check who else in his class applied to the same top schools. He was the #2 or 3 applying to reaches that typically only take 1 or 2 kids max from our HS, or the other kids applying has his similar stats but better sports or are legacy. My friend told me a classmate with a super profile (rich, top scorer, top athlete, great ECs, black, this was pre-supreme court case, double Ivy legacy) applied to all the reaches her son applied to and got accepted into almost all, essentially taking up one spot for each school in his entire list.
