Acceptance by David Marcus



The subtitle of this book is: A Legendary Guidance Counselor Helps Seven Kids Find the Right College - and Find Themselves.

The book follows a year in the life of this guidance counselor who is more interested in helping high school seniors find the college that will be the right fit for them rather than the college with the most prestigious name.

I liked this book. It was readable and the counselor has a lot of heart. It's a different take on the whole college admissions process which seems much more competitive and stressful than when I applied to colleges 10+ years ago.
