Customer Reviews:Average Customer Rating: well written and clear Customer Rating:  This book is written for parents, which assumes the traditional role will be filled. I read it as a part of my work preparing low-income & 1st generation college students whose parents do not participate like middle-class parents. Still, the information contained is useful, no mtter the intended audience. I used it as a part of a presentation to students that was well received. A MUST READ!!!! Customer Rating: Get out the highlighter and post its if you have a college bound child is high school. This is the best book I've read on the grueling process of college admission. It is specific in it's suggestions for every type of student. The "Helicopter Parent" Guide to College Admissions Customer Rating:  This book is right up the alley for all those helicopter parental micromanagers out there in cyberspace. If you are one then great, this is the book for you. If you are a student, pass on it as it speaks to only the parent. There are much better student guides out there than this. The book speaks to what active role(s) the parent should take to help get their child into the right college. I bought it thinking it would be a great guide for students and parents alike. It is not. It is a guide for omnipresent, low hovering, fueled up Moms and Dads. Good luck kids! May you find out who you truly are at the campus of your dreams - hopefully far away from your "life coaches". Read this book before applying for college Customer Rating: The best thing about this book is that it tells you what colleges NOT to apply to. It shows you how to match your GPA/SAT scores with colleges that are looking for students in that range. If your GPA is 3.2 and you want to go to Stanford, you are not going to get accepted so don't waste your time, emotions and money applying there. Look for colleges who take 3.2 GPA students. It also cautions you against applying to schools whose GPA range is way lower than yours. The authors suggest that you will be bored in such a school. Must Read for Parents of High Schoolers Customer Rating: Great book. We learned a number of admissions tips and strategies that helped our son get into college. | | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
