[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]But over half the class uses private advisers for college anyway, so this is essentially a phantom problem.[/quote] Not really. Even if there is outside help, the in-house counselors have to write THE recommendation letter for their students and they have 40-50 files each year. they supposedly need to get to know the kid well enough to recommend schools and conversely, be able to sell the kid to a top choice school if they are called about it.[/quote] And to try to work the wait iists instead of passively just sitting there waiting for the phone to ring. It's easier not to be pro-active when a counselor has too many advisees.[/quote]
