[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]At a non-DMV private. Like so many others here.

3.8 uw kid without private counselor:
Admitted to all early action/rolling schools - some with merit, including Michigan (other than USC).
Waiting on private RD T25 in March and a few SLACs.
Humanities major (undersubscribed major).
National awards.
[b]Did have essay coaching /editing, but no private counseling.[/b][/quote]

You are splitting hairs.  That's a private counselor.[/quote]

Everyone has essay help. It’s really not that expensive.

Ours never looked at the full application. Literally focused on common app essay in a workshop and then 3 school supplementals.
The private counselors we know cost 10 or 20 x.[/quote]

Got it..you are still splitting hairs.  Private counselors providing a full range of services can range from $3,500 to well over $100,000.  They don't have to be expensive.

[b]I have known folks who spent more on just essay help than others did on a full suite of counseling services.[/b]

Plenty of people spend $0 on any 3rd parties.

names for those services?[/quote]
