[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We hired a consultant to help us understand the rules so we could develop a good strategy but DC wrote the essays. Consultant read over them and made suggestions but that was it. Even if essays are no longer scored, DC would still need to put in the time. [/quote] The consultant still made suggestions, which I assumed your DC followed. It's unfair for those who don't hire consultants. And yea, you can say, "well, you can hire one, too; no one is stopping you". That is not the point. And that is why college admissions is a game. If you hired a consultant, then your kid didn't achieve it on their own. It's messed up.[/quote] I think it's mostly the college admissions system fault. They made it so unclear, complicated, unpredictable and unfair. [/quote]
