“My two sons have both worked on their college admissions process with Spark Admissions. Spark provided detailed, customized roadmaps for what it would take in terms of grades, standardized test scores, and extracurricular activities to be admitted to their schools of choice. Spark offered guidance in each of these areas as well various aspects of the applications themselves. Most importantly, Spark stretched the boys outside of their comfort zones and motivated them to do things that they wouldn’t have done without her coaching.”
