Parent & Student Stress
“It’s hard for kids to get into colleges because they only want to get into colleges that are hard to get into.” Bill Mayher, Author: The College Admissions Mystique
“Research demonstrates the ultimate success in life will be determined by your child and not by the institution from which he or she receives a diploma” (challengesuccess.org)
Academics are the most reported stressors in teens lives; teens feel a lot of pressure to do more
Learning to lead a balanced life = doing what is meaningful, not doing it all
![Page 19: Who Is My Counselor? Mrs. Stout Mu- R Mrs. NGUYEN A - C Mr. ESCOBAR D - H Mrs. PAUL I - MO Mrs. BERRY S - Z](https://reader037.vdocument.in/reader037/viewer/2022110205/56649cd05503460f9499c3ea/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
There is no magic formula to College AdmissionsAim for a high GPA but don’t go for the “easy A”
Choose most rigorous course of study without overwhelming the student.
Encourage balance Stress the importance of grades and extra-curricular activities but let them still enjoy being a kid
Value vs. Volume Admissions officers are more impressed by the quality of a student's participation in extracurricular activities--
leadership positions held, honors won, programs started--than by the quantity of activities
