WHAT I didn’t LIKE
You have to be able to work on your own and make a plan for yourself. There won't always be someone to tell you what steps to take. You just have to explore your options and be able to ask for second opinions on your own.
While we do our best to show up-to-date information, due to COVID-19 and other factors out of our control, it is possible that the data we are showing about test requirements, application deadlines, and more, are inaccurate. Please verify with the college itself via their website to ensure you are aware of all requirements and deadlines.
