With the older guy, it's getting down to the wire. He's going to do Early Action at one school, so that has to be in by November 1. We just found out about a week ago that he needs two more SAT Subject exams for that school - either Physics or Chemistry, and one of the Math tests. Yikes. He's already taken three others, so that’ll make five SAT subject tests, as well as four APs so far, and his SAT. But the school that wants the two additional subject tests is his No. 2 pick, so he'll do the extra two tests. As well, the goal is to have all the other schools’ apps pretty much done and sent in the next couple of weeks so he can get back to concentrating full-time on school. He'll have four more AP tests in the spring. We joke that he's the most over-tested kid in America.
It's been a lot of fun over the last few years as we've watched him wade through his choices, and as it became apparent what choices he would have, realistically. But now it's down to the brass tacks. And waiting. And seeing who shows him [the most] money, LOL.

Best wishes! I was one of the students who took all the tests - started Trinity with over 30 hours of credit, and graduated with over 160. (”What does this have to do with your major?!?” my parents would say.)
Bill has the SAT in a week and a half, and then he needs to apply immediately to UNC-Wilmington and Appalachian State, or he’ll end up with no options but a coin flip between Central and Southern Piedmont CC (each four miles from our house, in different directions) for next fall. Not that it would hurt, imo.
