[quote=Anonymous]My understanding is the counselor letter is fairly important for the more selective schools in that it really integrates the different “holistic“ components to tie the application together. Most counselors aren’t really going to know the kids very well, but they can look at the letters of recommendations + ECs And provide a summary that weaves together what the kid has to offer. So just put everything you can think of that is relevant, the counselors know how to write these letters. I don’t know if all schools do it this way but our counselor letters also included input from two additional teachers or coaches (beyond the two required LORs) Who I think we’re probably often better sources for little colorful anecdotes that a parent would be.[/quote]
