What it takes to become an admit

July 30, 2006

Getting into college used to be difficult. Well, guess what, it’s becoming even more so.

Admission rates are plummeting; as schools turn away top candidates, high school students are asking what they can do to increase their chances of getting in.

Most “experts” I’ve come across continue to spit out advice about how us high school students should just take it easy and just do what we want to do and that life will be fine… but let’s get serious! These days, most people can’t do much without a college education, and it’s imperative that we get into a top school. Obviously, there are successful people who didn’t go to great colleges or universities, but this blog is dedicated to discussion from those of us who do think getting into a top college is integral to success.

Hopefully, you’ll find and/or contribute some truly helpful advice about what it takes to become an admit. Enjoy, and good luck.
