A video presented by NR introduced the transition from the Big 8 Tournament and ISSL to AASB, combining years of competition, rivalry,

When we reach a certain time in high school, all we can think about is enhancing our curriculum. Grades, community service, and leadership positions have a significant impact on your college application and how admission officers perceive you as a student. To understand why these factors matter, it is important to consider who is evaluating the application. An admission officer, also known as an admissions reader, is responsible for reviewing college applications and determin

All students go through ups and downs throughout their academic journey. However, it doesn’t necessarily mean that if you have gotten into an academic slump, you become unable to recover and surpass expectations.

Recently, a vast majority of Ivy League schools and other institutions have officially dropped their test-optional policies, sparking divided opinions about whether this change promotes fairness or not. While some argue that standardized tests give students from different backgrounds, schools, and countries an equal benchmark to compete on, o
