[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes worth it. We hired someone this year for my STEM focused daughter who butts heads with me easily. Overall, having her managed DD's stress levels about the whole process that could have gotten out of hand. My DD is super organized and focused, but the counselor helped her importantly on a few things: --decide which 10 activities to include on her common app (this is hard when you have so many to choose from) --helped her come up with a list of colleges, --helped her decide on her classes senior year. When school scheduling conflicts threw a wrench in their plan, she helped her navigate changes, --gave direction on common app essay and college specific essays, which I thought was great, --gave DD confidence in her final decision making of where to attend. Her counselor is already booked for next year, so I am not sharing her name publicly but ask parents at your school, and they'll share names.[/quote] What year do you start this? My kid is starting HS next year. [/quote] We started in summer before senior year. I assume you can start earlier.[/quote]
