<p>👉 Register here: https://hubs.la/Q04jNZ_n0 We're back for our third year, and this one is the biggest yet. Join experts from Harvard, Yale, and MIT as they walk your student through the entire application process LIVE — Common App, essays, application persona, and more. Spots are limited!</p>
<p>---</p>
<p>📩 Want to find out what candidacy building looks like for your child specifically? Reach out to our team: <a href='https://hubs.la/Q02WyJTt0'>https://hubs.la/Q02WyJTt0</a></p>
<p>Matt Rosenbaum, Former Admissions Counselor at the University of Chicago and one of InGenius Prep's most sought-after advisors, is breaking down the concept that separates students who get into their dream schools from the ones who don't: candidacy building. It's not about the essays. It's not about the SAT. It's about what happens in the first 90 days. The families who get this right are starting way earlier than you think.</p>
<p>In this episode, Matt covers:</p>
<p>→ The two questions every admissions officer asks about every applicant</p>
<p>→ Why starting one year earlier increases your child's chances by 10%</p>
<p>→ The 4-step process that builds an irresistible application persona</p>
<p>→ Exactly what happens inside InGenius Prep's first 90 days</p>
<p>→ The 5 types of evidence that make an application impossible to ignore</p>

<p>Are academic competitions worth the time and effort? We’re covering everything from the top competitions that impress admissions officers, to how to find a healthy balance between specializing and exploring different interests. We’ll also touch on the not-so-talked-about side of competitions—what happens when your student doesn’t win and how they can still come away with tons of value from the experience.</p>

<p class="p1">In this episode, you’ll hear insights on:</p>
<p class="p1">🎓 The "Competition of Suffering": Why students often feel the pressure to write about the "worst thing" that’s ever happened to them in their college essays—and how to approach this tricky topic without falling into the trap.</p>
<p class="p1">🤖 Using ChatGPT in College Essays: Can admissions officers tell if a student used tools like ChatGPT? We’ll unpack what truly matters when it comes to writing authentic college essays and how to stand out in your application.</p>
