Parents today are often overwhelmed and anxious about getting their kids into what they perceive to be "the best" colleges, which usually means the Top 25 ranked schools on a particular list. Unfortunately this can lead to disappointment for many talented kids who aren't admitted despite stellar achievement. Instead of focusing on "best rank" from an arbitrary list, students have more success when families focus on "best fit" from a broader list of colleges taking into consideration their unique needs. Finding the right fit is more time consuming than referring to a college ranking list, but it's worth the effort and will almost always produce happier students and parents, as well as a more enjoyable and less stressful college journey.
