[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Lately, I’m getting the sense that a combo of parents, AI, and paid consultants are doing all the work completing the applications. Are your kids doing anything?[/quote]

My kids felt its not fair and did their applications on their own. They had mixed results even with very strong GPA, rigor, scores etc. I feel they could've had better outcome if they took help. However, they were fine with the outcome, enjoyed their college years and were proud of their self reliance. They did well in college and life, also found their own jobs and significant others etc so probably its not that important in life's bigger picture as it looks at the time of admissions.[/quote]

[b]Sounds like your kids are older, PP. The college admissions landscape has changed significantly since, and helping one's children with applications, whether with free or paid support, is a lot more acceptable today. [/b]Your adult children should not feel disadvantaged compared to their same-aged peers.
