  Ep. 330 | How To Build A Target List

  Aug 15, 202611 min

  In this week's podcast, I review one of the most challenging (but important) parts of the college admissions process. Building a target list of colleges This entails narrowing down a list of 4,000+ colleges to a manageable list of 10-14 colleges that meet all of your child's preferences, such as: big school, small school, medium school location urban, suburban, rural majors selectivity residential life et cetera The list of 10-14 target colleges also needs to reflect an appropriate mix of reach, match, and likely schools. In today's episode, I zero-in on one strategy that may help unlock colleges that might be hiding from consideration.

  Ep. 327 | 3 Habits Teenagers Must Adopt Today

  Jul 19, 202610 min

  In today's episode, I discuss a trend I have been witnessing over the last few years. The trend is getting worse and I hope this episode will highlight the issues. I meet with students every week for 1-on-1 consulting sessions (some via Zoom and some in-person). I have identified three basic habits that students should adopt to make these sessions more productive and valuable. Give this episode a listen and let me know if you're seeing similar shortcomings in these areas.
