Story
Irena is a Russian Jewish immigrant, a PhD in comparative literature, a former Stanford admissions officer, and a private college counselor in Palo Alto, California—a city where everyone has to be good at something and where success often means the name of a prestigious college on the back of a late-model luxury car. But as Irena works with some of the most ambitious, tightly wound students in the world, she struggles to keep her own family from unraveling, and that sharp-edged divide lies at the heart of her memoir.

You might or might not be familiar with what it potentially take for your child to succeed. What sets this book apart from the rest, is that it streamlines every aspect. That clear picture the book lays out for you, gives a much needed Eureka moment.
