Rock Hard Apps is the ultimate guide to writing the perfect college application. With excerpts from winning applications to Ivy League colleges and sidebars of do's and don'ts, Rock Hard Apps will take college applications to the next level. You may think you have a killer college application, and so may your parents and high school advisors, but Rock Hard Apps will allow you to see what's good and what's weak in real applications from real students who got into the nation's most competitive colleges. Rock Hard Apps will show you how to create a fantastic application judged from the application reader's point of view. The book follows three students throughout the application process and highlights what they did wrong, and how they were saved. It also includes a ton of information in sidebars and boxes -- all of which applies to you. Book jacket. Distributed by Syndetic Solutions, Inc.
