There are a lot of numbers involved in the admissions process: GPAs, standardized test scores, admit rates, class rankings, etc. Although in general numbers are a fairly black and white matter, the fact is that there is a lot of gray area when it comes to numbers and college admissions. Julia Jones, former senior admissions officer at Brandeis University and College Coach's list guru, will explain how students can evaluate their numbers and use them to help craft a college list. College finance expert Alex Bickford also joins us to go over the basics of saving for college. In our final segment, former University of Chicago admissions officer Sally Ganga will stop by to trade funny essay stories--the bad, the ugly, and the unbelievable. If you've ever wondered what not to do in your essay, this will serve as a great primer!
