<p>The position is actually at a HS, so it’s considered HS counseling. However, in China, a lot of high schools don’t have college counselors (believe it or not) so they hire from placement companies. As part of this company, I can be stationed at various HS sites across China. All of the counseling done is completely ethical. I would not be steering students towards HYPS unless they profess an interest in those schools, and I would be just as happy helping them get into tier 2 schools. I also will not write essays for them, take tests for them, etc. I will avoid those companies that do those like the plague.</p>
