[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes! The prevailing wisdom is to apply to several reaches, targets, and safeties. But actually, reaches aren't necessary at all. Most important is finding a good fit: socially, academically, and financially. [/quote] Our HS counselor is conservative. We wasted so much $ on target/safeties. Got into all. Then got in RD to 2 Ivies, Hopkins, Williams, etc. With our next kid we are cutting out so many of those that older sibling applied to. Younger one has even more rigor/stats. I made the mistake of listening to this board and everyone’s horror stories [/quote] Applying to safeties is like buying insurance.[/quote] True, but kid was way over-insured. lol [/quote]
