[quote=Anonymous]For the two people with college admissions experience, I'm wondering if you could explain further a comment I've seen in your posts. I see you both saying the (roughly) top third of the high school class will be very strong students, so they do not need much help from the college counselor, and will get into top colleges regardless. That makes sense to me as a general matter. But I'm wondering whether an effective college counselor helps even those top-third students with admissions. Let's say we agree any top-third students is strong enough to get admitted to a top-40 college, even without any help at all from the college counselor. But will an effective college counselor be able to increase the odds those top-third students are get admitted to their top choices among those colleges, and even to top-15 programs? Or are you instead suggesting that college counselors are only minimally relevant for top-third high school students? TIA.[/quote]
