Dewey Smart was a huge disappointment. All the counselors were college students with no real experience. My child is a senior, and the ones assigned to us were completely unprofessional. Their calendars were booked weeks into admission season, and even then, they kept canceling at the last minute.We ended up using barely 2 hours of actual service in three months because no one was available or responsive. The so-called “guaranteed internships” are a total scam — they just send a list of random links, half of which don’t even work. No one actually helps or guides you through anything.Their website is slow, buggy, and badly managed. The only good thing is they refunded the money, but by then we had already lost valuable time we should have spent working on essays early.If you care about your child’s college applications, avoid Dewey Smart. They waste time and give you nothing useful in return.
