In business and in life, the challenge lies in finding those well-seasoned ‘teachers’, gaining access to their training, and working with them to define and refine your message: “This is who I am! This is why I deserve a place in my dream college and major programme!” Fortuitously, experts like Viral and Mridula rise up and offer access – to their combined wealth of knowledge and experience in successfully taking high-schoolers and undergrads through their further education applications process. I would highly recommend that students aspiring to the Ivy League and such reputable colleges enjoy this wonderful collaborative journey on which these student authors and their advisors take us.
