<p>Hi all - just wondering if some parents have found the online calculators for EFC - both FAFSA and Profile, to be less accurate on finaid.org than they used to be?</p>

<p>I hope so!!</p>

<p>no, it is obsolete. they didn't update it with 2009-2010 info.</p>

<p>Collegeboard.com has the most accurate one now

<p>In the past I found the Dartmouth calculator to be almost exact for us, I hope that is still the case, as there is a 10K difference!</p>

<p>I don't know anything about the Dartmouth thing. The college board one works well for Federal method. profile schools are a whole other ball of wax</p>
