[quote=Anonymous]In our experience, neither school is fantastic where college counseling goes. BASIS affords kids more counselor time than Walls, but that doesn't necessarily mean that their counseling is better. BASIS did not encourage applications to a couple programs admitting in the single digits that our student got into (we did almost all the legwork ourselves). BASIS puts too much emphasis on GPA and test scores in helping kids prepare college lists, not enough on interesting backgrounds, initiative and personal preferences.[/quote]
