“From the start of my work as an independent college counselor and IB consultant nearly a decade ago, I recognized the Hook as an essential tool in a successful application.  That’s why every time I conduct a student workshop, speak at a parent night, or work with a student one-on-one, I hammer away at one theme:  Find your Hook!  Over the past few years, hundreds of my students have heard and heeded that message. They have worked hard to find a Hook and package it through every page of their application in order to get a leg up in admissions.”
