Produktbeschreibung
Now a USA Today and Publishers Weekly bestseller! How do you REALLY get accepted to Harvard, Yale, and the Ivy League? Told from the fresh and personal perspective of 26-year-old Crimson Education CEO and Harvard, Stanford, and Oxford graduate Jamie Beaton, Accepted! is an honest and practical guide on beating the odds and getting into Ivy League and other elite schools - the smart way. Beaton takes you behind the doors of the world's top college admissions offices, revealing the highly strategic selection processes applied by institutions whose reputations depend on the number of students they admit, or more pointedly, the tens of thousands that they don't. In Accepted!, Beaton delivers the ultimate insider "how to" and disrupts cliched admissions advice with savvy strategies like: * Moneyballing the university rankings and increasing your chances of admission * Class spamming your way to academic supremacy and acceptance * Playing the early application dating game and understanding how institutions are using it to their reputational advantage Packed with real-life examples from the thousands of students Beaton has helped land a spot at Harvard, Stanford, and other esteemed universities, Accepted! is a never-before assembled culmination of secrets, insights, and application strategies guaranteed to maximize your chances of "getting in" to the school of your choice. From ambitious students and their supportive parents to academic advisors and admissions professionals, Accepted! is the must-read guide to demystifying the often-convoluted and increasingly competitive world of elite college admissions.

"I spent 20 minutes with Jamie Beaton some years ago and jumped at the chance to invest in Crimson when it was a small company with huge success in New Zealand. He was not your typical 19 year old. At an early age Jamie understood the importance of receiving the best education possible, and has tried to avail that to tens of thousands of students worldwide.

- Kevin Rudd AC, Former Australian Prime Minister

- Emeritus Professor David Buisson, University of Otago, Sloan Fellow MIT, Former Regional Chairman and Educational Counsellor for MIT undergraduate admissions

"Jamie is a great source of inspiration, a visionary entrepreneur and above all, my life-long mentor and my dearest friend. I met Jamie at the end of high school when I desperately needed a scholarship to afford my college education, for which Jamie generously offered his guidance. Because of Jamie's support, I was fortunate to receive a full-ride scholarship from the Australian National University for my undergraduate study followed by Master's degrees at Stanford and the Schwarzman Scholars Program at Tsinghua. The last eight years of growing Crimson with Jamie has been an extremely rewarding journey and a truly transformative experience - lots of which you'll be able to discover in this book!"

- Fangzhou Jiang, Crimson Education Co-Founder, HURUN 30 Under 30

- Ed Matsuda, Founder of Teach For Japan, The Most 100 Influential People in Japan (Nikkei Business), Crimson Education Japan - Country Manager

"The first conversation I ever had with Jamie changed the course of my entire life. In the span of one hour, Jamie had turned my childhood dream of attending Harvard into a precise actionable trajectory that led me to gain admission to Harvard, Stanford, UPenn (Huntsman Program), Columbia, Brown, and Dartmouth, and more recently has led me to building a venture backed company. His book ACCEPTED! is an extremely punchy collection of the many kernels of wisdom Jamie has shared with me over this multi-year journey - an absolute must-read for anybody thinking about applying to competitive US/UK universities."

- Soumil Singh, Harvard University - also accepted to Stanford, University of Pennsylvania (Huntsman Program), Columbia, Brown, Dartmouth

"Jamie has taught a generation of students that the impossible is possible and now ACCEPTED! is the playbook for that vision. This book will give you the insight of what it takes to aim for a target on the moon and hit the bullseye every time - accounting for the physics of moon-gravity and space junk that may come in the way. ACCEPTED! is a rare look into the mind of a master strategist and how this mindset moulded an ambitious kid to a global leader."

- Rahul Sood, Wharton / UPenn CAS '20, Vagelos Program in Life Sciences and Management summa cum laude

"ACCEPTED! offers unparalleled, practical and 'can't-find-anywhere-else' insight on the ever shifting and increasingly competitive top college admissions landscape. I am evidence that Jamie's advice is golden. I never dreamed, when starting my applications, that I would have three Ivies and Stanford to choose from. There is no way I would be where I am today if not for what Jamie describes in this book. Read it and take his advice - it works!"

- Claudia F., Princeton University - also accepted to Stanford, the University of Pennsylvania and Dartmouth

"Jamie is exceptional -- full of energy, ideas, and passion. He's the kind of person you go to when you have a wild, or rather, statistically improbable vision, and he possesses the conviction and skills to make it happen. At age 16, yearning for a community of intellectuals and change-makers, I aspired to go to one of the US's best universities. While I started knowing close to nothing about the nuances of the admissions process, I ended up receiving a Likely Letter from Stanford! Three years later, my sister also worked with Crimson and is now studying at Oxford. For our family, working with Crimson and Jamie has elevated our futures to new heights -- enabling social mobility, world-class opportunities, and once-in-a-lifetime experiences."

- Rizina Y., Stanford University - also accepted to Princeton, Yale and Oxford

"Jamie has blown my wildest dreams out of proportion: I'm now living them. Following Jamie's advice, I was offered admission to my dream school - but also a full-merit scholarship that I wouldn't have dared to imagine myself capable of. Jamie will help you reimagine your possibilities. He's a visionary, but also a relentless pragmatist. There is no one more knowledgeable, passionate and hungry when it comes to college admissions."

- Jia D., Robertson Scholar at Duke University, 3 x VEX Robotics World Champion - also accepted to Princeton, Columbia and Carnegie Mellon

"A thorough and thoroughly interesting guide to a world we think we know all about - wonderful!"

- Oscar E., University Of Pennsylvania, Wharton School of Business- also accepted to Yale and Cornell
