[quote=Anonymous]I am NOT recommending this book - I have not read it and I think the very concept is a nightmare.

But this book answers OP question:

[i][b]What High Schools Don't Tell You (And Other Parents Don't Want You to Know): Create a Long-Term Plan for Your 7th to 10th Grader for Getting into the Top Colleges[/b][/i]

https://www.amazon.com/What-Schools-Other-Parents-toKnow/dp/0452289521

[i]In order to succeed in the fiercely competitive college admissions game, you need a game plan—and you have to start young. In this empowering guide, Elizabeth Wissner- Gross, a nationally sought-after college “packager,” helps parents of seventh to tenth graders create a long-term plan that, come senior year, will allow their kids to virtually write their own ticket into their choice of schools.

Parents should start by helping their kids identify their academic passions, then design a four-year strategy based on those interests. The book details hundreds of opportunities available to make kids stand out that most high school guidance counselors and teachers simply don’t know about or don’t think to share. This indispensable guide should be required reading for any parent whose child dreams of attending one of the country’s top colleges.[/i]

Again, I disapprove of the idea of this book and offer it up at your own risk.[/quote]
