[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What if you don't need help with time management or test prep, have parents who are writers/editors, and you work well with your parents. What does a college consultant do for you in that scenario? I'm really trying to figure this out.[/quote] Here's why it worked for us: 1) preserved peace at home, and made someone else the editor. (Someone else and not me, a mom who writes for a living, but who can't say "boo" to her kid without him taking it personally. And yeah, a combination of better parenting and different personalities might have meant he could listen to me, but that wasn't where we are. 2) helped my kid learn to articulate what he wanted to study and what he wanted from life in a mature and focused way, which helped us choose the right schools to apply to and helped him write an essay about his goals. FYI, I didn't spend tens of thousands.[/quote]
