Lauren Stenson is a recent graduate of Hillgrove HS in Powder Springs, GA. In episode 8 we discussed how students will often listen to another student before they listen to an adult.
This is a great episode for students to listen to. Lauren begins by telling us about the activities she was involved in while in high school. She shares the colleges she applied to and where she was admitted, wait-listed and denied. Lauren discusses the things she did well in the college process and the things she wishes she did differently. Lauren describes the mistakes that she saw some of her peers make. Lauren gives sage advice to the students and parents. Lauren tells us why she selected the college she chose and she shares what her future plans are. (Length 20:36).
