[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So many moms think just because they assisted their kids and family members they are qualified to be a college counselor. But it’s highly unlikely you can replicate your results next year because you’ve never worked in an admission office so do not actually know why your students were admitted. OP start volunteering with college match or similar group before trying to become the next Nina Marks.[/quote]

NP. I disagree. I did the research and helped my kid get into schools that are unheard of for our local public. I volunteered for the heck of it and helped kids get into HYPSM and many prestigious SLACs. You know what I learned? Most kids write shitty essays that seem to be what gets them rejected. I don’t think a good essay can get you in, but an essay that is acceptable will at least not put you in the reject pile. So if you have the stats, you can get in by having an adult who understands what colleges are looking for review your essays and other application components. I am in the UCLA program and having fun. OP - sign up! You might love it. [/quote]
