Bottom line: With college admissions as competitive as they are now, students (and parents) are scrambling for some semblance of control over their admissions outcomes. Many of those who can afford to pay, already stressed about whether their child's grades and extracurriculars will be enough to get them through, will grab at any opportunity they can to boost their chances, and test prep companies like Kaplan and Princeton Review have taken advantage of this market.
