Author and Educational Strategist
I want to congratulate my most recent high school graduates and college graduates for another spectacular year of college and grad school admissions! It was a particularly strong year for the Ivy League. And lots of my students also got into MIT, Caltech, Stanford, Chicago, Northwestern, Duke, UC Berkeley, and some of the 8-year medical programs. Way to go!

Welcome to EducationalStrategy.org!

This site serves students and parents seeking to learn more about successful college admissions and some of the most outstanding educational opportunities available to high school students inside and outside the classroom.

High school seniors: Learn more about my newest book, Write Your College Essay in Less Than a Day, on the Books page. What's exciting about this new book is that you can read the book AND write your essay all within 4 1/2 hours. The book will even help you come up with an engaging topic--even if you think there's nothing interesting about your life. In fact, if you're about to begin senior year, you can get your college essays finished in August, so you don't have them hanging over you in September!

The 2011-12 High School Insiders Calendar of Opportunities will be available as of mid-September to my students. The calendar lists contests and opportunity deadlines for the entire year, including some of the most prestigious national and international high school competitions and other outstanding opportunities. I'll also be announcing to my Twitter followers some of the major national and international contest dates as the deadlines approach.

Also check the Events listing regularly to see where I'll be speaking next, and where I'll be offering one-day essay-writing workshops. I hope to see you at some of these events!
