[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hired one on an hourly basis to talk to DC and generate a list of schools. It’s something we could have done in theory, but DC was like a deer frozen in headlights, just completely overwhelmed, and I suspect our voices were starting to come in like the adults’ in Charlie Brown. The list helped break through the logjam. DC then had specific schools to read about in Fiske, etc. Rejected some, got interested in others, which then gave us things to talk about as we considered still others. Thereafter we checked in with counselor only occasionally — advice about whether to submit lopsided scores, a check-in for DC before the first interview etc. It was all very relaxed, and although we mostly know the drill, it was nice to have someone outside the family to use as a sounding board. [/quote] Any chance you want to share the name of your counselor? I'd like to hire someone to help with the list. Thanks![/quote]
