@NUwildcat92 I’m not venting, I’m enthusiastically educating teens on the bottom-line process so they don’t over-estimate their chances of getting in.
On the internet, there’s way too much “hey, your grades/scores are good so go for it 'cause you’ve got a chance!”
and not enough “many thousands of kids have great grades/scores and they got denied and you probably will too.”
Help kids manage their own expectations up-front and you’ll have healthier kids who navigate life better because they’re not despondent.
