[quote=Anonymous]Not a straightforward situation.

This is for a JHU G and T DC who dropped out of high school (undistinguished record) with health factors and, in all honesty, attitude factors as well.  After a period of time, entered community college after passing the new GED with honors.  Is now deeply passionate about education and acing everything, while doing significant volunteer work and some paid work.

DC wants to transfer to the best possible local four year (local to keep current medical team) at end of community college and is interested in pre-med.  So in addition to transfer advice, we'd be looking for planning toward applying to med school in terms of courses chosen, major, etc. From my preliminary research, the best choices could be very dependent on the four year college/med school.

Marks Education has been recommended.  Any other recommendations and any idea of the costs of such counseling?  (Dollars are not a huge factor given CC savings.)

We did not see the need for a private college counselor for other kids but those were typical high school to college situations and the research was pretty straightforward, plus high school counselors helped.  Getting the balance right here seems more complicated.[/quote]
