[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kid is playing a fall sport, a club sport, is in 3 ap classes and volunteers on weekends, and is applying to a couple special programs with unique requirements in addition to the reach/target/ safety thing. [b]She started the essays, but I’m finishing them for her to proofread. [/b]I’m handling the common app profile, fafsa, css, college board, and everything else that goes along with this process. The whole thing is very bureaucratic and it’s unrealistic to ask a hs senior to know how to navigate it.[/quote]

Super lame. [/quote]

Agreed. You’re finishing the essays? And doing the Common App? What the…[/quote]

That’s fine to judge. I think paying for essay or college consultants is lame.  I suspect what I’m doing is being considered by many. Just thought I’d throw it out there so those that are overwhelmed with the process know it’s ok to help your kid. Especially those that are in multiple sports with multiple ap classes, and packed weekends staring at 11/1 deadlines. When do you expect your kid to work in it? Midnight to 2 am?[/quote]

Sure, why not midnight to 2 am? If need be. I keep telling my kid, this is not forever. Just get through this.

Again, if your kid can’t handle this, they have taken on too much, or they aren’t as high-performing as you want them to be. All of these things were choices.[/quote]

Go away. Your kids are done with this. WHY ARE YOU STILL HERE?????[/quote]
