Présentation de l'éditeur :
Revue de presse :
A former Ivy League admissions officer, Joie Jager-Hyman follows five bright and eager high schoolers—students from diverse ethnic, social, and financial backgrounds—as they each put their best foot forward on the road they hope will lead them to the hallowed halls of Harvard University.
At once a remarkable true story of dedication, achievement, and heartbreak and a guide for success in an ultra-competitive environment, this important work deserves a place in the home of every family that has ever dreamed of receiving that coveted “fat envelope” in the mail. Jager-Hyman also offers a startlingly frank appraisal of the college admission process and the important roles race and class continue to play in a student's efforts to attend the best school possible.
“[A]n engaging and informative book that every parent with a high-school student will want to read.” (Wall Street Journal)
“Jager-Hyman’s engaging stories of real students provide a much-needed reminder that the road taken may mean more than the destination, and---whatever the college-admission outcomes--there are many such roads to happiness and success.” (Sally Rubenstone, senior counselor, CollegeConfidential.com)
“Fat Envelope Frenzy will rivet all readers and make everyone who applies to an Ivy League college - whether they are accepted or not - feel infinitely better and infinitely wiser. Unmissable.” (Naomi Wolf, bestselling author of The End of America)

Description du livre Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. What does it take to get into Americas top universities Just who is getting inand why These are the questions at the heart of the mysterious and extraordinarily competetive college admissions process. In this fascinating, essential handbook, former insider Joie Jager-Hyman explains the rules and (ir)rationality of the admissions game, following five high school juniors applying to the most revered of all educational instutitions, Harvard University. Meet Felix, an Asian-American straight-A student from a wealthy Philadelphia neighborhood; Andrew, a prep school star displaced by Hurricane Katrina; Lisa, an Asian-American, nationally-ranked gymnast at one of the best public high schools in the country; Marlene, a financially strapped Dominican-American student from suburban New York; and Nabil, an Ethiopian-American math star from Memphis. Which of these five different students will receive the coveted fat envelope As she tells their stories, Jager-Hyman uses these students experiences to explores every aspect of the elusive admissions processfrom test scores and test prep to dynamic extra-curricular activities that stand outand shows just what sets some kids apart and what role class, race, legacy, and smarts play when it comes to getting inor getting rejected. A former Ivy League admissions officer follows five stellar students in their quest to enter Harvard University and uncovers the mystery behind the daunting college admissions process.
