[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am not a Sidwell parent. My kids go to a different private school. We were less than impressed by our college counseling as well. In hindsight I realize what someone else already mentioned. The school college counselors don’t really care about your individual kid. They are trying to get the best results for the school. What they want sometimes works in your favor and sometimes against it. Advice for future parents - Do your own research. [b]Hire a private counselor who is your kid’s advocate. [/b]Listen to your school counselor but keep in mind that sometimes you need to ignore their advice. No one cares about your kids applications as much as you and your kid.[/quote] Private counselors are not calling colleges on your kids behalf. As such, what do you mean by the bolded?[/quote]
