[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sara Harberson's methodology is right on, and not expensive.  Highly recommend vs private counselors.  
We have fantastic results[/quote]
This is what we did but with mixed results so far. Some of her advice contradicts what HS counselors say.  For example, Sara says to never report at 4 to a reach school (i.e. Ivy).  School counselor said that was ridiculous.   [/quote]

Same here. Our CC insisted reporting all 4s when our student said she would not based on SH.

That’s not how I understood SH’s advice. She’s cautionary on submitting 4s to highly rejective schools based on seeing people rejected for doing so at Penn. I think if you had a 4 on BC Calc, she’d likely advise not to submit if you’re a hard stem applicant to an Ivy but to go ahead if you’re applying as an English major and you’re otherwise submitting 5s for eg Lang and History.[/quote]

My son is a CS major and she said not to submit 4s in AP lang or history.  [/quote]
