[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]- People who hire a counselor to help their kids develop a solid list with a good mix of schools and get them through the process (and avoid the inevitable parent/child conflicts that will happen if parents drive the process) will likely be satisfied. - People who hire a counselor to get a particular outcome--especially if it's getting into a reach school--will likely be disappointed. -People who hire a counselor in 9th grade to create "passion projects" and curate their child's interests are asking for mental health issues down the road. [/quote] I basically agree with this assessment. A LOT of kids are not ready to focus on college stuff in 9th grade. I also think that you need a kid who is really invested in the process if you're going to start that early. Some are really into the process and enjoy it. I had a kid like this.[/quote]
