Admissions One Consulting

Having taught at several Ivy League institutions as well as at Berkeley, having sat on a few admissions committees and being a pretty good writer/​editor, I thought I knew a lot about what my daughter would need to do in the college admissions process. I kinda did.
But Michele Rabin of Admissions One Consulting knew soooo much more. She started out by coaching my daughter to a good list of places to apply and then staying on her to write excellent essays and put together a great «package,» including all the secret tips about how to get admissions officers to really notice you.
Most impressive was that she gave really flawless insight about how to improve and deepen my daughter’s essays. When I thought they were pretty darn good, Michele knew exactly where they could go deeper to really make an impression. She found the spots my kid could polish to a gleam.
She definitely caught/​suggested things I wouldn’t have. For example: «Please describe where you’ve lived in your life to date, in 50 words or less.» The normal thing is to list things in chron order… but no. The best answer is to focus on one place and say something memorable about it. Pretty sure she was right given my daughter’s admissions success rate.
Nothing but good to say about her!
