Yes. You should check out TOPQUEST at .collegiatezone.net. I would say it's the best college planning website I've found. You can search/match to colleges and for scholarships. By registering basic information and using its auto-fill technology, you can complete multiple college applications in just a few minutes.
It also helps you to narrow down the college search by entering your SAT/ACT and GPA scores. It's so cool how it matches your information to the requirements of the college. And you have access to tons of scholarships that you can apply to using the same auto-fill tool.
I also logged on to their chat last week-they offer bi-weekly chats and free online support after hours in their online counseling center.
1. Dedicated groups on different categories where youcan find answers to most of your questions.
2. Experts guidance and advice in Ask and answer section.
3. School and colleges list in India as well as abroad.
4. Info on important admission dates
5. Alert facility so that you do not forget important dates
6. Information for over 70,000 colleges, courses, scholarships and admission notifications
There are lot more things you can get help on.....

Answer
I used when I was searching for and applying to colleges last year. It's pretty helpful, and gives you some ideas to start with, but I'd watch out a little when they label your chances of getting into a certain school. Sometimes they rate you a little too high, especially if it's a state school that gets a lot of applications. Sometimes the schools they label as "safety" are actually more of a "good match."
I highly recommend visiting the campus to which you are applying, if possible. It really gives you a good idea of what the school is like. Don't worry about how prestigious the colleges that you apply to are-- just find the one that looks like a fun and comfortable place to learn.

Also, just to add on to the list, if you have already narrowed down the college you are going to be attending, I would suggest e-mailing them or taking a tour of the campus. Along with that, you can even see on most college websites a virtual tour of their dorms and housing options, along with a map of the whole campus. I think the best way to be prepared for college is to talk with people who have already experienced it, and find out good tips and advice they can give you!
