[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Do you know anyone who hired one this cycle? Think $15-50k/year? How has it worked out for them?[/quote] I know someone in NYC who is paying at least $50k for one. I think Koppelman. It is a full-service deal. Hired as a Freshman, her appointed advisor is available basically 24/7 via text or phone. They cultivate her classes, arrange volunteer activities that look impressive, arrange internships that look impressive...will help incorporate a business or non-profit if it makes sense, etc. You have to realize that the counselors that charge a ton and have great success get to work with kids that are rich, probably attend the most prestigious NYC privates or Magnet programs, probably have legacy, etc. People may find this repulsive...but it seems like better value than many that spend say $15k and all you got was a mediocre college list and minimal help.[/quote]
