[quote=Anonymous]My kid goes to a TT private in NY. They said they can make calls, but the feeling is they’re not that important The truth is also that high schools don’t really care about your kid. Through the combination of money, legacy, private help, insane rigor - we send roughly 20% to HYPSM and at least half the class to t20. BC is the level of safety. And we have very rich and connected families. And they def do reach out. But our HS knows we’ll always send the same number to these schools. Maybe there’s one kid every couple of years who is important for some reason. But that’s one kid to one college. Each of our counselors has a load of 20-25 kids. Maybe they have a special affection for 2. Almost always the diamonds in the rough, kids on FA. They do spend a lot of time w those kids - on Questbridge and scholarships and maybe a call. That’s it.
