I am finding that it’s easy to be pushy with the 2nd kid going through the process - I wasn’t bugging my older child about college prior to junior year (she did some college visits that summer, but only because we happened to be on the west coast and weren’t likely to return there for visits). She took her tests in winter/spring of junior year, but I’m encouraging S19 to take his in October. I’m going to try to back off until after his scores come back, but it is a little overwhelming trying to come up with even a preliminary list when you’re dealing with such a blank slate!
The process is fun for me, but it’s a complete mystery to him, and he (understandably) has other things he would rather be doing with his time for now.
