Good point @mikemac - I didn’t mean to imply that all colleges don’t put weight on counselor recs at all but on re-read of my post in may have come off that way. I certainly know of schools where overall the recs being put out are not great (overworked staff) and the colleges know those as well. But the main point I intended to make was that a student should ensure they write a good rec for you by basically giving them all the info they need to do that. Whether the school weights the teacher rec more than the counselor rec (which I have read as well) isn’t as relevant as having all good recommendations, which is what I was intending to convey like your article said - take charge of your life and make them happen.
