[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you’re applying to more than 10 schools, you have too many reach schools on the list and need to pair it down. You can’t effectively pay attention to 15 different applications. You start to get diminishing returns in the quality of the application at a certain point, also it’s not realistic some of the schools you really wont attend.[/quote] But with common app you don’t really need to pay attention to 15 different apps. I’m sending my 4th kid off to college in fall of 2024 and the CA has made it so easy. He is top 5% of his class with high 1570 SATs and his approach is not only “top schools” but many schools “below his pay grade” because he chasing honors programs and merit money. He’s watched 3 other siblings do this and we pretty much have the formula down. It’s nice to evaluate at T10 school with no merit against a big state school, tons of merit (or a free ride to UMich in one case) and honors college. [/quote]
