[quote=Anonymous]My understanding from when my older kid graduated in 2021 is that the letter is mostly based on a brief meeting/conversation fall of senior year, the student record (grades, course rigor, disciplinary issues, etc.) and the contents of a parent questionnaire, if submitted. It’s meant to support the transcript and school profile more than actually “recommend “ the particular student. A lot of schools didn’t even require it as part of the application process. My current junior has had three counselors in three years. There’s no way anything personal is going to be in that letter. I’ll be putting a lot of effort into the parent questionnaire just to provide some context but I’m not overly confident or concerned about the impact. [/quote]
