[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I didn’t use one and believe they could be helpful but anecdotally I’ve been surprised by the outcomes of families that I know did, in the sense that I would have thought their kids would’ve gotten into better schools. Not sure if the advice was bad, the kids were weaker candidates than I assumed, or college admissions is just do competitive, but I also suspect the counselors persuade students to undershoot in ED to wrap up a good outcome. [/quote] Many, if not most, families use counselors for reasons other than getting into the highest ranked school. [/quote] Sure but advice on “strategy” is one of the things people mention. [/quote] sometimes the strategy is to get the most merit aid possible...[/quote]
