Frequently asked questions

What should I do first when school profiles for undecided students?

Start with the surface that best matches the current question, usually a state page, results page, or school profile. A better starting question usually matters more than a deeper click path.

How do I know whether the workflow is helping?

It is helping if the shortlist, comparison set, or next question becomes clearer after the session. Good help articles reduce uncertainty, not just add reading.

When should I use the Advisor?

Use the Advisor when you can describe the tradeoff you need help with. It works best after a first filter or profile pass has already happened.
