Avalon. This mirrors my situation at school so much that it's scary. University? OUAC forms? Next week?!

Speaking of university applications, the guidance counselor made another student cry. The counselor encouraged her at the beginning of the year to apply to as many American universities as she wanted. Today, she told her point blank not to try, that there wasn't any point in applying because her chances of being accepted was "virtually zero." Some guidance. It's been happening for years now, the same person telling people not to apply to Ivy League, Oxford, special programs, etc. because they wouldn't get in.
