Happy New Year! Happy 2021! It’s a new year, and even if it seems not much is changing during the ongoing global pandemic, it just feels like we have a new start in January 2021. To get the year started right, I’m sharing an amazing coaching session with one of my Passion Project Bootcamp students, Anjali.
Anjali asks so many good questions in this coaching session, and a big one is about how many school clubs she should be joining. I reveal whether or not joining a lot of clubs will help your college application or not. As you’ll hear, the answer will be a bit different depending on your theme, which is why having a strong theme is very important in the overall process.
Creating a unique theme for your college application is something I focus on teaching in my 1-year college consulting program, The Passion Project Bootcamp. Click here to learn more about our amazing program!
She also asks a question about how to land research positions, and a few more college admissions questions that I think you’d find relevant to your current situation too!
So here’s your 1st step to take! You can register for the free training here. This is where I share 4 strategies that will help you land research and intern positions, create amazing passion projects, and get awesome results for your college admissions journey.
This is a brand new training, so even if you’ve attended one of my free trainings in the past, you’re going to want to attend this one! Don’t miss out. Register here!
