"The first college admissions strategy book that actually shows one how to get into college."
--New Jersey Spectator Leader
"What's even better than all the top-notch tips is that the book is written in a cool, conversational way and even offers anecdotal bits in their Stories From Real Life section."
--College Bound Magazine
"Get Into Any College delivers 288 pages of invaluable information ranging from the elimination of admission myths to successfully tapping into scholarship funds."
--Leonard Banks, The Journal Press
"This fast read, written by Harvard graduates, contains such advice as 'How to Master Verbal and Reading Tests.' (The short answer? 'Read like crazy') One chapter is devoted to helping parents guide without being heavy-handed."
--Town & Country Magazine
"Harvard grads educate teens on how to get into college. The Tanabes spent three years researching and writing the how-to book on college admissions, test-taking and essay writing. They wrote the book after recognizing high school students' need for concrete advice on how to beat the admissions game."
--San Jose Mercury News
"Applying for college can be a drag for high school seniors who don't always know exactly what admissions officers are looking for. Now there is a book that can help."
--The Daily News
"A good tool for teens. The book is jam packed with real examples including 23 actual college application essays, over 50 strategies to increase SAT and ACT scores, and special chapters for parents. It features student narratives showing applicants how the process does (and does not) work in the real world."
--Robin R. Plasterer, The Post & Mail
"The book is filled with student-tested strategies to help applicants write better essays that stand out from the pile."
--Pam Costa, Santa Clara Vision
"When you consider the costs of a four year college or university education nowadays, think about forking out $17 for this little gem written and produced by two who know."
--Don Denevi, Palo Alto Daily News
