With my expert guidance and strategic planning, students gain the confidence and competitive edge needed to secure admission to their dream colleges.

Here are the two parents interact with their kids differently when they come back from school.

Parent 1 - what is the home work/assignment today?

Parent 2 - How was the school today? what did you learn today?

I don't know which category of parent you fit in but in dealing with students and parents over the years, I have observed that we are so much bogged down by the grades and merit of our students that we unintentionally forget the most important part, learning.

By no means I am diluting the importance of grades and merit in this meritocratic society but if we focus on the learning part then merit and grades will eventually materialize. Remember, it is the spark of learning which will take our kids far. Once we lit that spark then most likely they will be on auto pilot and cherished the fruits of learning throughout their lives.

I have seen myself with numerous students over the years that ACT and SAT are not the good indicators of success in college/university and career life.

University of California colleges will no longer be allowed to consider ACT and SAT scores from applicants, after a superior court judge ruled the "test optional" approach was unfair.
