Listen Later

I’m thrilled to introduce you to Tara, one of our outstanding Passion Prep students, as she shares her inspiring journey through the college admissions process. In this episode, Tara opens up about the overwhelming stress she initially felt, trying to juggle “all the things” to stand out. But as she soon discovered, it’s not about the sheer quantity of activities or test scores - it’s about quality, passion, and intellectual curiosity that truly make a difference.

Listen in as Tara reveals how shifting her mindset and adopting the strategies we teach here at Passion Prep led to incredible wins, including landing a prestigious research position at Johns Hopkins. Her story is not only motivational but also packed with valuable insights for anyone navigating their own college admissions journey.
