In this episode, we’re cutting through the noise with Alan—a senior at Rowan University heading to Midwestern—to talk about what actually moves the needle before you step foot on campus. We’re covering the "hidden" skills like manual dexterity and tooth carving that you should be practicing now. We also break down the reality of D1 hands-on exams, how to handle the massive transition in lifestyle, and the high-leverage moves you need to make on your application and in your interviews to stand out from the thousands of other applicants.
