Most families assume that strong grades, leadership roles, and packed extracurriculars will guarantee college admissions success. But I explain why top schools aren’t just looking for impressive students—they’re looking for memorable students.
In this episode, I’ll break down:
✅ The #1 mistake high-achieving students make in their applications
✅ What admissions officers actually look for (and what they ignore)
✅ The simple 3-step strategy to make your teen’s application stand out
✅ How to stop guessing and get a clear, customized plan in just one week
Every year, I see students realize too late that their application is missing key pieces. Don’t let that be your teen.
