In a flipped classroom, students watch video lectures before class and use class time to work on assignments and group projects.

At Strength in Numbers, we are equipped to help with every step of our the college essay writing process, which now may be the most important part of the application itself.

Since SAT/ACT exams are optional, colleges in California and nationwide want to know more about students and their pandemic challenges.
