During my first Facebook Live Q&A of 2026, I answered questions from high school students and parents from across the country on topics like the SAT/ACT, letters of recommendation, high school classes, and much more!
If you missed this session of Ask America's College Counselor, keep reading for a list of some of the questions I answered and to watch the full video.
SOME QUESTIONS YOU'LL SEE ME ANSWER:
