[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]One of DC’s friends is regretting it because she was steered by school counselor to change her ED school. It turned out now kids with lower stats are ED her original choice. Should stick to your guns.[/quote] This is really where ED goes off the rails. In its purist sense ED is a good thing - kids who truly know they want to attend a specific school should be able to benefit a bit from that commitment. But when strategy drives ED decisions and a counselor steers and ED application what are we really doing? [/quote] Umm...if an 17/18 yo with parental assistance cannot understand ED and the choices, they just might not be ready for a 4 year college (certainly not one that has ED). ED is great for people who understand it, if not, don't do it. If your kid is easily swayed by a counselor, then you have bigger issues [/quote]
