[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I wonder what goes into the school letters from the high school counselors. Do they compare the kids when so many apply to the same one - especially where there is no GPA or rank? Is that where they can give some kids a boost (or not)? This whole process seems so mysterious!! [/quote] Advising the kids to play to their strengths (leveraging legacy status) or steering them too aggressively and not allowing free choice. Being realistic about odds of getting in or telling them what their parents might want to hear. Having no influence with admissions officers or too much influence. Which is it?[/quote]
