[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]How hard is it to research schools that are appropriate for your child? I don't get why kids with help from their parents can't narrow down a list of safety schools, target schools and reach schools?[/b] What is so difficult? Why pay thousands of dollars for this? I can understand hiring someone for the essay but not for a list of schools. [/quote] Because the counselors will write a recommendation - that's why. If they know the kid and his/her strengths they can write knowledgeably and enthusiastically about your kid. And if they have a track record with certain schools and even know the admissions people there, who in turn trust counselors from certain schools, this can be a big advantage over someone doing all of this on their own.[/quote]
