<p>I'm an international and no one at my school has ever applied to American universities before. I sent the Common App forms to my counselor about a week ago, explained what she had to do, and today I went to talk to her to see how they were coming along. She said she didn't understand them and I highly doubt she's started the letter of rec at all. I saw things she'd written, like for the question about the GPA.. I have a 4.0 GPA unweighted but she checked off that it was weighted! I tried to kindly correct her about that and she replied with " oh that doesn't really matter". This is stressing me out so much, i feel like she won't have these forms done right, let alone on time! I don't know what to do!</p>
<p>maybe you can politely suggest that the two of you schedule a time to sit down and work on the applications together?</p>
