I have heard so much about this one that I feel I must read it! I haven't read any of her others, so I'll comment on college admissions. I only applied to one college for my bachelors, and was so excited when I received my admission letter that I saved it in my Senior scrapbook!

As a parent, I am not looking forward to college admissions for my kids - I'd read this to start preparing myself.
I still haven't made it to college, but I still have hopes that I will make it someday, even if part time only.
I've heard good things about this book. I've love a chance to win it. Please count me in. Thank you!

I still have residual stress from college applications. I was homeschooled, so the whole process was a bit more confusing and complicated for me.

I just remember writing the essays and the long forms. My son is at a junior college so we haven't had to fill these out yet.

i have heard nothing but wonderful things about this book thanks for the giveaway minsthins (at)optonline (dot) net
I went to 2 universities for my BA. They were a peice of cake to get into but they were not top 20. I had a tougher time with getting accepted for my masters. The essay could't be my normal B.S. It had to be first rate and many drafts. However, I did get accepted. I don't think that I would have been able to get into a top school and didn't have the money for it either. I miss school!

I'd LOVE of a copy! I'm a high school librarian and am always looking for titles like this for our seniors!
My son is graduating college, but this book looks like it could help him with Grad School Admissions.
Thanks for the giveaway!

I have went through the college application process too many times to count!! Ugh graduate school!!
I would love to have a chance to read about the "other side"...

I applied to six schools. I was accepted to four, wait-listed at one, and rejected from Yale (that was my reach school). I had been home-schooled for most of High School, so it was a lot of extra work and confusion for me, but I got accepted into some very good schools. Too bad I ended up unable to afford to stay in any of them, so now I'm doing correspondence courses. :-( NYU especially would have been nice to be able to attend.
I would love to read this book to learn about things from the other side of the situation. Please enter me. Thanks!

My son is a junior in high school so we are just starting the process of looking at schools and thinking about which ones to apply to. It would be interesting to read this so I could have a look at it from the other side.
I've got my daughter hopefully going to college in a few years so I hope that " College Admissions" will be a phrase that becomes very familar to her.
