For over a decade, Lisa Marker-Robbins has helped nearly 4,000 high school students and young adults gain the insight, experiences, and confidence they need to embark on their post-high school path.
Along the way, however, she noticed an alarming trend: Teens struggled to find their true purpose - devastatingly impacting the student’s college admissions and scholarship success.
In our conversation, Lisa shared:
- Why strong GPAs and high test scores may not be enough to gain admittance to your student’s dream college.
- Why “knowing where you want to go” is critical for college admissions and scholarships.
- Why your teen is NOT too young to get clarity on their future college major and career, and how most of the world is better preparing teens for career clarity.
- The role of college major clarity in college admissions, based on actual data from the colleges.
- Why high self-awareness is critical for a student’s future success with college admissions and scholarships.
Lisa has a complimentary video on “How to guide your teen to choose the right major, college, & career” that she created for parents (and students), and she’s given me permission to share this with my audience! In this, she’ll cover:
-
How to know *beyond any doubt* that your teen has chosen the right college, major, and career path, and hasn’t based their decision on luck, picked the “safe” option, or inadvertently restricted their potential.
