[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP is mere middle class and can’t fathom people being too busy and too rich to care. Not everyone has freetime or desire to surf college forums all day to get up to speed. Just pay someone ten grand to do it all, and added bonus of advice coming from third party, thus less family tension. It’s really about the peace of mind, less household drama, and making sure kiddo crosses T’s and dot I’s.[/quote]

This is what I figured  I suppose if you're wealthy, it would be nice to just pay someone to take care of the whole process for you.  [b]But it doesn't seem to me that they are doing anything to help kids get into colleges that they would not otherwise be getting into[/b], which is what I think most people who haven't given it a lot of thought would assume that private college counselors are doing.

actually I think it's worse than that -- if the college suspects you're using a consultant they will hold it against the applicant.  I think scrutiny will be heightened now after the latests scandal. [/quote]
