[quote=Anonymous]We are in a large public school, no private counselor but our DC did ask for and get several meetings with her school's councelor to discuss thier options. I think it is important for kids to leverage the school councelor more than a casual hello. Whether you are using external counselor or not, having the HS counselor know a lot about the child is important - they are the ones writing a recommendation letter and thier bias will come out. As for us, our DC relied heavily on youtube videos (private counselors, AOs etc), collegevine (and similar sites) to come up with their initial list which the HS councelor helped trim (and matched most of our suggestions :) ). So I know I am not answering the original question but this is my way of saying - dont overlook the public HS councelors even if you have a private coach helping you. [/quote]
