[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]NP here. in terms of the culture at gds, is is not very cut throat but the kids work hard. I heard about the same new parent who appears very cut throat but that is not the norm at gds. her kids r new to the school so maybe she thinks thats typical, but I can assure u it is not. and I did hear that the counselors know which kids are self starters and which are parent-driven and their letters of recommendation reflect that.[/quote]

Well, I hope the counselors ask kids and don’t make assumptions about whether they are self-starters. How would you know that?[/quote]

Counselors work with the teachers for feedback. 
Plus everyone should know how to do mock interviews by now. Or gauge authenticity and triangulate from there. 
Besides the counselor will be pushing fit and a span of selection. 
Starting a 501c or joining clubs only junior year doesn’t fool anyone the last three decades. It’s pretty status quo around here given volunteer requirements by public and private schools in the area. [/quote]
