When you leave school, your mate value drops through the floor. You're suddenly competing with guys older, more experienced and more attractive than you are, and at the same time, all the girls your age are realizing how high their own mate value is. This is not a good situation to be in.

Tucker and Dr. Miller tell you exactly how to do that, along with explaining how to pick your classes to increase your mating opportunities, and how to find women that you'll have things in common with. The pair also share some of their funnier stories about their own mistakes with women from their college days.

Provide a safe, comfortable space where she can trust you, and she'll let her freak flag fly.
