#1 Recommended Tool for Juniors Applying to College This Year in the Fall



Everyone has great SAT test scores. Everyone has leadership on their resume. Everyone has volunteer experience that makes your heart melt. They are team captains and olympic-bound athletes. Yes, your kid is the perfect kid....for Harvard, Princeton or any other school of you choice. But will the Admissions committee see that in the application, essays and interviews?

Here's one differentiator still on the plate for high school juniors to take advantage of -- an enlarged worldview.

Most Juniors are so busy with cramming, studying, and shining in so many ways that they forget about the world around them -- literally.

How to cure this deficit? READ THE NEWSPAPER.



Time and time again, essays and conversations in interviews easily show those students that are "a more advanced" in their maturity. And one way is to get your kid to read the Wall Street Journal daily. They'll quickly become versed in some of the "adult" things in life from the great articles in the Personal Journal section. They'll also be up to date on global news and issues from the rest of the paper.

It will be some of the best dollars you spend on their education. Get the paper delivered, get them to read it daily for a month or two and you'll see. It is quite amazing.
