I think DS may have said we’re not proficient in English at home. Oh well. Done now.

No, it kicks in as soon as they get an acceptance.

Not in this house. Says he hasn’t had a “real Halloween” since 8th grade. Party planning is ongoing.

Halloween party planning has kicked in. So nice to see.


Senior DC still has 3 applications due tomorrow, but since ED is already submitted, DC just went TOT and partying ... Will skip school tomorrow to complete the last 3 ...

That's how I took it, too!

My kid didn't even let us look at his essay or supplemental responses, so I sure do hope they're OK... (My older child let us read hers and even suggest copy edits.)


Funny…my oldest wouldn’t let us read his essays and with middle child I’m reading every.single.essay. I didn’t realize how good I had it with the oldest

My kid is applying 1 ED (high target) and 1 EA (strong target). Hopefully done.

Yes, my DD said feels like a big weight lifted, only to be replaced with another one. Still working on normal apps and ED2. Need to finish normal apps before 12/15.

I didn’t get to read any of the essays. Not sure how I feel about that. But 4 11/1 deadlines met, 5 RD deadlines still to go.
