College for C/D Students: Are There Even Options?

Much of what we see, read, and hear about college admissions seems to imply that even the very best students will struggle finding an institution to accept them. Once you step back from the craziness that surrounds admissions, you realize there are lots of options for many students. But is that true for students routinely earning C's or even D's? On this week's episode, we'll explore the college process for those students who are less than high achievers. We're also going to take a closer look at the National Merit Scholarship process, and round out the show with a in-depth analysis of how to approach MIT's essay questions for the 2015-2016 application.
