[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]30 years ago, I was a 'B' student in private school. Not a strong 'B' or a weak 'B'. My college counselor told me and my mother in order to get into the top college of my dreams, it would be best to go to the junior college (that's what they were called back in the day) for a year, then try and reapply. Darlin' mom said bull$%#&, and we applied to the college of my dreams which was a reach even back then. Didn't get in BUT did get into it's academic competitor. Parents should definitely get seriously involved in the college placement. If my mother handn't been such a warrior queen, things might have been different. I learned from that experience and am a serious proponent of parental involvement in the placement process. Miss you, warrior queen! :) [/quote] All hail the warrior queen! Your mom was a wise woman, PP, and she kicked butt. [/quote]
