[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] They are adjusting to the dynamic. They are adjusting in favor of the athlete. They are recruiting athletes and only athletes. [/quote] CCO isn't recruiting anyone. They get the class that shows up. As noted above, my kid would need to compete against strong applicants at every Big5 and at our public. CCO has no control over that and I personally do not feel any sort of stress over the fact that my child will be up against recruited athletes when applying to college, any more than they are up against legacies (which I think are taking more of these coveted spots). The athlete/legacy nudge is a cultural value we just have to live with for now - that's on the colleges - not on the HS counselors. [/quote]
