In this episode of Demystifying College Admissions, I will be focusing on the college admissions process and sharing with you how to jump over the hurdles instead of running into them. There is a hidden key to making this process enjoyable so make sure to listen!

WHAT YOU'LL LEARN ABOUT IN THIS EPISODE:

  • The best way for parents to help their child discover his/her passions
  • The importance of a mentor and how you can find one
  • How finding one's passion happens through a gradual process of exploring interests rather than through a spontaneous revelation
  • The consequences of forcing a passion merely for your college application.

  • Methods for building self-confidence

NOTABLE QUOTES:

  • "The only way to gain clarity as to what field might be a good fit for you is to take action."
  • "Passion is a build-up of multiple interests, multiple exposures, and multiple breakthroughs."
  • "Do it now when you're younger so that you're building your resume, not polishing your resume to stand out."
  • "Don't let it be a lonely process. Instead, let it be a powerful experience."
  • "That's why it's 99% mindset work and then one 1% actually doing the work because it's about your mindset; it's about your confidence."
  • "This college admissions journey doesn't have to be so difficult."
