[quote=Anonymous]Seems awfully young to be doing this;kids change so much. I bought the Fiske Guide and insiders Guide and found both useful, but my kids prefer doing things online. They both went on College Confidential as sophomores and typed in their stats and interests to get a list of potential schools. Of course they have to project test scores (but sophomores at least have PSAT scores to go by). Then they found youtube videos produced by students about the different schools, and went on some school websites. Can't say it helped much, because by the time we started visiting in junior year, they were no longer interested geographically in many of the schools that CC gave them as "matches." But it was a fun exercise for them nonetheless and started them thinking about college.[/quote]
