[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sara H. & Co. should not be your main source of information. [/quote]

She is still relying on her experience 10 years ago to inform current students. She is shockingly misinformed of current AO practices.

I have had several kids go through the college admissions process. I am a silent member of Application Nation. I don’t post or comment, but she does provide a lot of good advice. She has a couple strong opinions that many CCOs and private counselors disagree with. The two I can think of reporting [b]only 5s on APs and NEVER listing a summer program in your activities list. [/b]What are her other deficiencies? I think she is pretty much aligned with a lot of podcasters, etc. nothing “shockingly misinformed.” [/quote]

I was also a silent member. And I agree that those are her two strong opinions - plus her other rule on "no resumes" (which I don't think is true - but only for certain schools).

I learned a TON from her site - and am now part of the alumni group. I also think her essay "guidance" was really good - the way she "approves" topics. You can start to see patterns of which essays will really move the needle and be most impactful. [/quote]
