[quote=Anonymous]I took the lead in different ways for both kids because the were somewhat paralysed by the process. First super high performing kid had one reachy-reach she wanted and wouldn’t really talk seriously about anything else so I basically came up with a short list of other schools that I thought were generally good fits for her with range of acceptance rates and said “we’re going“. Second kid a little less ambitious but just had zero idea what he wanted- again I basically proposed a bunch of places that gave a range of “types” and he went along with it. Is it possible we missed some schools they would have really liked because I was leading process? Sure. But I understood the college world in a way they didn’t and high school juniors and seniors have enough on their plates so I was pretty actively involved.[/quote]
