[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not our experience. We left BASIS after MS for a top private but have been disappointed by their cutthroat approach to college counseling. The school "picks its horses" to apply to various elite colleges. If the school's grim-faced counselors, AP teachers, and admins think that your kid will prove a top contender at a particular school, they won't support their application, at least not zealously. We've would up hiring a supportive and upbeat independent counselor who's doing a great job, and hasn't cost us an arm and a leg. No results yet, but I'm optimistic. Would selected a different private if I'd known what was in store on the college advising front! [/quote] Would you be willing to say which school?[/quote]
