[quote=Anonymous]Here's our experience: DD1 went to highly-regarded NOVA high school where, with a 3.5 GPA and 2000 SAT scores, she was about middle of the class and counselor did the bare minimum -- mailed the transcripts in the envelopes we provided pre-addressed, postage paid. DD2, with similar credentials, went to a local Catholic high school where DCUMers wouldn't be paid to send their kids and the counselor actually reached out to DD2 (including during 2 particularly difficult times for DD2, not college related), suggested colleges he thought might be a good fit, and when DD2 zeroed in on a "top choice" for her, the counselor reached out to the college, called the admissions contact, and kept us in the loop. I've heard similar stories from other parents at both schools. [/quote]
