Since I started the Be CollegeBound with IvyBound Series I’ve been getting hundreds of questions from high schoolers and their parents on their high school to college journey, and on everything and anything under the sun about college admissions. Instead of only answering three questions per episode, I am dedicating this entire episode answering the questions that I received from you– high schoolers and parents of one. I’ll be providing you practical and implementable advice so that you are well on your college admissions journey to the college of your choice. I told you that it’s this an extra special episode. 

Let’s get started with the Rapid-Fire Q&A Session in Live Office Hours with myself, Ruchi S. Kothari. Just so you know these questions are answered by me randomly and are not placed in any special order or given a specific priority. If you would like a visual representation of the Q&A and would enjoy following along, download the transcript from my show notes for this episode at https://ivyboundconsulting.com/005.

Listener Shoutout

“Your last episode about selecting your academic courses was very informative. Thank you for explaining the differences in the goals and expectations of a high school guidance counselor and that of an admissions counselor at a college. My daughter especially liked the worksheet, How to Best Select Your High School Academic Courses, and the numerous admissions tips, tricks and secrets you provided on the topic. She’s all squared away for the upcoming year, actually for all three years that she has left of high school.”
