FREE INFORMATION
Back when the Internet started, people built websites and over the years loaded them with content.  You can visit some of the biggest and best scholarship websites and get all of the information you want for free, and it's really good information.  You must of course be willing to search for it all, read it on your own, digest the information and make your own decisions based on that information.  In the end, it's just information.  What I have learned is that many of my students and their parents suffer from information overload.  They want someone to guide them.  They want more support than their guidance counselor can provide.  They want their specific questions answered.   I've also learned that not everyone learns by reading.  In fact people only retain about 10% of what they read...they learn much more by doing, which is why I wrote the book with clear exercises and action steps.  Successful students won't just read the book - they will take action, complete the tasks, and build a team of champions to help them.
