[quote=Anonymous]I work in this industry and like with everything, you need to sort through who is good. There are plenty of SAHM types who only counsel a couple kids a year and act like it is their big career. Look for people who actually worked in admissions offices and have a track record. I did and I also worked at a large firm with backing from private equity and then started my own firm. I have helped plenty of private school clients, they may go to a school where there are plenty of legacies and huge donors and don't get the same attention from their school's college counseling office. There will inevitably be tension between the school and an independent counselor since the school bristles at having any outside interference so it is better for the client to not tell the school. Many of these clients have gone on to top programs, including Ivies.[/quote]
