Which College Should you Go To?
Consult an Audio Book!

They seemed to be coming in the mail
just about every day now. Letters from colleges all over the
country, practically begging Timothy to visit their campus. All of
his hard work was finally paying off. His 4.0 GPA all throughout
high school, his perfect attendance, his honor society memberships
and volunteerism. His high SAT scores, his national spelling bee
wins. It was time for Timothy to reap the benefits!
Tim was receiving full scholarship offers from universities far and
wide. Famous ones like Harvard and Yale, and ones he had never heard
of, like Bethane-Cook and Gardner-Webb. Ones close to his home in
New Jersey, like Princeton, and ones across the country in
California, like San Diego State. He was visiting as many schools as
his schedule possibly allowed him to, but it was all becoming too
overwhelming. He needed some help deciding which college would be
best for him!
With over 80 scholarship offers, Timmy decided to eliminate many of
them right off the bat because he decided that he wanted to remain
close to home. But that still left him with a list of 35
universities. He was doing some research online, when he came across
an audio book for sale entitled How to Choose From the East Coasts
Top Universities. This was exactly what he needed!
With a couple clicks of the mouse, and $9.99 charged on his credit
card, Timmy was able to download the audio book straight onto his
IPod. The audio book gave him an extremely detailed breakdown of
every major college on the east coast. He learned which ones had
strong history departments (that was his major), which ones had good
volleyball teams, and which ones had the best campus life.
With the help of his audio book, Timmy chose Boston College - and it
ended up being a perfect fit!
