[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Op my friend paid a consultant and I did not. I think her consultant set low expectations so she wouldn't be disappointed. Go ahead and apply. If ds gets in she will take credit. If not. she will say "I told you so". [b]she is looking out for her business-- not your son[/b][/quote] I think that's pretty cynical and likely not the case. These consultants get most of their business from word of mouth referrals which are predicated on positive experiences. Her business goals are aligned with the child's college goals. I can only imagine the parents she has to deal with that have insanely over-inflated opinions of their children....we know quite a few of these types. I would guess that managing expectations is an important part of her job.[/quote] ^^ Could only have come from the consultant himself.[/quote]
