[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think it's a question of "trust but verify". Use the school counselor to get additional information. In particular, they have info on how kids from your own school have done at a particular college, which you probably won't find on CC. But don't let this be your only source of information. And don't, whatever you do, let the school counselor's recommended colleges be your only guide. I wish we had completely ignored the recommendations of our K-8 school's counselor, but we didn't know enough at the time to realize how bad the advice was.[/quote] Excellent advice, PP. I'm the pp who mentioned CC. We used more than CC, Naviance helped a bit (you'll probably get a link & password senior year) so we had a basic idea of other girls' stats who applied and were accepted at schools DD was interested in.
