The Sept/Oct 2019 resolution for varsity LD reads, "In the United States, colleges and universities ought not consider standardized tests in undergraduate admissions decisions." In this episode, Josh and Ethan join forces to interview Ms. Courtney van Kleeck, the college admissions counselor for Thales Academy Rolesville. Courtney has helped four classes of Thales graduates get into college, and she lends us her expertise on what colleges are looking for in the application, how the standardized test fits into the picture, and why she thinks the SAT/ACT reinforces harmful stereotypes with impressionable students. We hope this episode is helpful for your preparation! Let us know how it goes!
