Testimonials
I have benefited from BACG in countless ways. The college process can be very overwhelming, with so many decisions to make and so many directions to go; I would have been simply lost without BACG. They provided me with a road map for success and were my guide throughout my journey. In addition to helping me choose the best courses, they introduced me to amazing summer opportunities that both fit my interests and broadened my horizons. For the application itself, they helped me with everything from getting organized to writing a stand-out essay on a topic that was meaningful to me. Above all, they really cared about me and became invested in me, sharing my joys and my burdens, really wanting me to succeed. Their warm, friendly staff became invaluable partners to me, always checking in on me and giving me advice that I remember even now, as I prepare for life after college. I owe so much to them. - Harvard Early Admit '09
Having worked with Angela and her staff, they seem capable of beating insurmountable odds. My case illustrates this point. I changed schools nine times in eight different cities in three different nations, and it was impossible to find help for my particular situation. My constantly changing schools caused me to have a dearth of extracurricular activities. Furthermore, I neither had perfect grades nor excelled in any one particular subject. Lastly, I had few close relationships with my teachers, meaning I had meager teacher recommendations. Thankfully, I found BACG, where I received personal, customized feedback from Angela herself. My application was relatively weak for an Ivy League school, but BACG's meticulous care and attention made a huge difference and ultimately made the unthinkable possible! - Columbia '11
