[quote=Anonymous]Solomon will survey your kid in a variety of ways, and then offer a few specific options for undersubsribed majors that match your stated interest.  THen, they counsel you to do activity X and Y in pursuit of the one you choose.   I think a lot of your satisfaction depends on the personality fit and responsiveness of your specific counselor, which is subject to chance.  But whether the offering of specific paths is worthwhile to you or not is really dependent on your kid and their sutation.  Like I feel like I have heard of several business-oriented boys doing "sustainability."  Is it becoming cliche if even I know 2-3 examples?  (They hired either Solomon/Crimson/or national consultants at that price point).

I didn't have the money they were asking for.  Instead, I spent around $5,000 on someone who will hold my kid's hand and get stuff done.  But this person is definitely not telling the kid to major in X or Y, or steering her into specific, undersubscribed substantive areas.  They are also not giving us links to places who will help the kid do a research project after we pay $10K.  They seem to get along with my kid and are helping us find a good fit for schools.  For me, that's worh $5,000.[/quote]
