| I happened not to be working full-time at that time, when I had the situation such as fauve describes. Because D#1 was that category of prime candidate (and because it was my "first" in the New World of college admissions), it was extremely fortunate that I was not working full-time. I spent a great deal of time on research, which helped enormously.
Not in that position now with D#2, and no, I would not "quit my job." I've also therefore had less time to review, advise, etc. It may affect her admissions results somewhat, but mostly they will be affected by factors having nothing to do with my availability & much more to do with the level of competition & her test scores. |
