Media Reviews
'This is the book we have all been waiting a long time for and it will surely become an indispensable guide for both applicants and advisers. It covers everything the applicants need to know on their journey from choosing a university right through to their arrival on campus. It contains really useful tips from those who have been through the process as well as numerous case studies and suggestions from university admissions tutors about what to put in a personal statement. It is the most comprehensive guide to the university application process I have ever come across and I shall certainly be advising both my sixth formers and work colleagues to get hold of a copy.' David Fullerton, Head of Careers at Dean Close School, Cheltenham 'Absolutely brilliant! It's a must have read - not only for students who are thinking about higher education, but their parents , new advisers or anyone at all who wants to understand the process. It is all there in a practical, informative and easy to understand format. It is completely impartial and offers fabulous tips and advice (particularly like the use of symbols) and it will certainly be on my shelf! It truly is a fully comprehensive guide that the reader will be able to dip in and out of at various stages.' Debbie Verdino, Post-16 Manager at Thomas Deacon Academy
