Very helpful starting point for the college selection process
Bycybercitizenon July 18, 2015|Verified Purchase
This book in an earlier rendition was very helpful to my daughter. Once you have an idea of what you want to major in, you can choose the colleges or universities that are strongest in that field of study. Then you can easily write reasons or answer questions on why you chose that particular college and what you hope to do with your life. I recommended the book to a relative, and also recently bought an updated copy for a friend's daughter. I highly recommend using the book along with big packets of different colored Post-it Notes to help with the bookmarking and whittling down process.

Very Good - Wish it was Great
ByDebora from Oaklandon November 28, 2015|Verified Purchase
My daughter was able to find out about some engineering majors she did not know existed. It would have been more helpful if we could see the courses offered at some of the universities mentioned in the book.
