Negative Positive
Title: Overall, very helpful
Review: Finding and applying to the "right" colleges today is a process comparable to getting one's wisdom teeth pulled, sans Novocaine. For teenagers in pain everywhere, there's COLLEGE MATCH. This balanced and clear book takes one through a step-by-step process of discovering your interests and what you want in a college, then recommending how to go about finding those colleges and keeping multiple applications straight. (My favorite suggestion: Keep a wall chart with important dates (when to ask for an application, early decision, regular decision, postmark dates) for the colleges you want to apply to. I'm already planning the ritual sacrifice of yet another room in my house to the ubiquitous College Search.) Think of this book as a compass that can guide you through the endless maze of college guidebooks and directories out there, as well as the colleges themselves.
