Thanks everyone…I don’t plan to overdo this…I just want to do some common sense preparation. The stakes are pretty high, a full scholarship would be nice.
I think who she is will shine through. She is naturally fairly articulate - though she can be snarky, I think that’s reserved for me and I’ve never seen it come out with another adult. I’ve stayed completely out of her academic life, and have had a rather hands off approach to her college search and selection. Definitely not going to over-helicopter this one, perhaps more of a stealth submarine approach.
Preparation soothes anxiety also. She and I are alike in this way, and I want her to be at ease as much as possible.
