[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Use the College Essay Guy (on Youtube) and then [b]see if your child's high school has a writing center.[/b] (IF you can't fork out the $ for a tutor - and that's okay!) [/quote] NP. Our DC's high school had a pretty strong college counseling bent, and students were welcome to spend their lunch periods or study halls in the "college center." They were encouraged to spend that time working on applications and essays, and the counselor who specialized in the college application process would discuss essays if they wanted. I realize that not all high schools have this much help available, but unless you ask, you might not know that your kid's HS has counselors who would look at essays if asked. [/quote] Our HS has ~600 seniors yearly. There is 1 college counselor. Each guidance counselor has ~500 students. So really the school is not much help at all. (Great public school, one of the best in my area). Basically the school is useless other than the very basic searches. They don't have time to do anything else[/quote]
