Parents of Pujitha

We are so thankful for all the help you gave our daughter, Pujitha, during the college application process. With your support, she was able to build an amazing profile that really showed her strengths and interests. Even though she missed the deadline to submit some things, you were so kind to accommodate us and make sure everything was ready. You also advised us not to apply Early Decision to Duke, which helped Pujitha focus on the best fit for her. Thanks to you, Pujitha got into Stanford, which we didn’t think was possible. We couldn’t have done it without your help. Thank you so much!

Coach Jo helped me gather all the necessary information for my college applications and made the process much easier. She guided me through writing great essays, especially my Common App essay, which I was originally unhappy with. After working with Coach Jo, I ended up with an essay I love. Her 'look over my shoulder' approach kept me on track and motivated. The Discord group and group sessions were super helpful, with Coach Jo being responsive and answering all my questions. The Trello board helped me stay organized, though I wish I could update the cards myself. Overall, Gifted Gabber was a fantastic experience, and I definitely feel more confident and prepared to submit my applications.

College applications were confusing with so many things to track, like SAT scores, transcripts, and essays. I feel more confident about receiving acceptances after spending time writing and editing my essays instead of rushing. The sessions helped me stay on track, meet deadlines, and brainstorm essay ideas. The resume building and ensuring I met college requirements were especially helpful. I loved how we brainstormed the Common App essay, which turned out much better than expected. Coach Jo’s guidance, especially for an Indian student, helped me understand the process and improve my chances of acceptance.

Gifted Gabber’s counseling program provided great insights for both kids and parents about college. The sessions were very helpful, and Coach Jo gave me the confidence to feel like a strong candidate for top colleges. I loved how Coach Jo portrayed me in my applications—her approach kept me motivated and focused. My personal statement was spot-on and really reflected who I am. My parents, who handled my brother’s applications on their own, now wish they had hired Coach Jo because she has so many helpful tips and tricks for becoming a strong candidate. The program was very organized.

Coach Jo helped me stay organized with my application and improved my time management. The sessions felt like built-in deadlines, making me stay on track to finish tasks before each class. She’s a great instructor who really helped me. I feel my story came through in my college application. Submitting my application with a strong essay felt amazing. I’d definitely recommend this program because it really pushes students to do their best with their college applications.
