[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The CCO could definitely do more to give the impression that they actually care about the student.  There was no sense of "I think this school would be good for you" or "have you thought about xyz?"   It is a very transactional relationship which leaves something to be desired in a process whose success depends on the whole child landing somewhere that is the right fit. [/quote]

The whole child landing somewhere that is the right fit? What does that even mean? Are you saying that part of the child could land somewhere that is a "wrong fit?"[/quote]

Yes there is a wrong fit. [b][quote]Why is half the class applying to Michigan?[/b][/quote] Is that the right place for a kid looking for small class sizes? Many of my DS friends all threw in apps there just because. That hurts the kids who really want to go![/quote]

Yes by all means please stop applying to Michigan-your Sidwell snowflakes aren’t going to last a day there where you need to stand on your own two feet and compete with the smart kids.[/quote]
