[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We hired a consultant, and she did her best, but it didn’t work out. We applied to four schools and were accepted into only one. Looking back, we don’t feel she was particularly helpful. She did assist us, but ultimately, consultants don’t have the power to influence admissions. These private schools are extremely careful. They manage millions of dollars and generate significant revenue. Their admissions offices would never risk their reputation, or that financial stability, by admitting students just because someone asked or pulled strings. If a child gets into all of the “big three” or just one, it likely would have happened with or without a consultant. If consultants truly had that kind of power, it would amount to paying your way in, which would be a major scandal. I used one too because I was stressed, and I wanted an easy pass, but now I just feel stupid when I think about it. [/quote] +1[/quote]
