[quote=Anonymous]Private school college counseling offices do NOT heavily edit essays, although they offer advice. I assume private school families are more likely to hire essay coaches, but I also think that private schools tend to focus more on writing overall and produce better writers. [quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I believe SLACs still love private school kids. Perhaps state universities don’t take into account the private school transcripts and [b]higher quality essays[/b] and teacher recommendations but SLACs spend more time reading applications. I would be thrilled to have my kid go to a school like Bowdoin, Grinnell, Colby, Hamilton, etc. [/quote] LOL. Read, "essays that have been heavily edited by the school's college counseling office or consultants." Admissions officers at SLACs and everywhere else know this happens at private schools. Also, why would teacher recommendations have a heavier weight coming from private than public? [/quote][/quote]
