[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Apart from this question OP, ‘We’ are not applying to college. You need to step back and let her manage this process on her own. [/quote] Op here - Oh this old chestnut. “We” absolutely are applying in a way “we”would not be where I come from. Why are the parents hauled into school practically every week plus for updates on the process by the college counsellors, meetings with college counsellors, asked to write an essay about our child, encouraged to go as family to collage fairs, participate in case studies of previous applicants’ applications in order to understand what college admissions officers are looking for, advised to drive around the country endlessly looking at schools, revisiting schools, and the list goes on. Trust me, I am as flummoxed by how much “we” are applying and not just our kids. Give me a break with that tired condescending claptrap. [/quote]
