Publisher's Summary

Want a quick and dirty guide on how to set yourself above the thousands of other students worldwide that are competing with you for scholarship money? Josh Barsch has been a scholarship judge since 2003, and he's identified 10 big essay-writing errors that students make every year that rob them of a chance at big-time college money. For the price of a McDonald's value meal, you can get a giant leg up on the fierce worldwide competition for scholarship money.

Warning: "Judge Josh " is direct and pulls no punches, and in some cases even uses a little bit of adult language. This book is seasoned with biting humor, and you may find yourself laughing as much as you're learning. If you're a prim-and-proper, buttoned-down type with no sense of humor, do NOT buy this book!

Scholarship winner

I found this very informative for those who are applying for scholarship now. I would strongly recommend this to anyone who is getting ready to graduate from high school.

Loved it!

Excelent resource on what to NOT do when applying for scholarships. Straight yo the point.

Opposite Thinking

book lists what to avoid in an essay and gave some extreme comparisons. Left me wondering what to include in an essay that helps my child stand out. Thought the $150k scholarship tip at the end would be more proactive

Must have for all potentials college students

I appreciated the honest and truthful responses that judge Barsh provided. I will use these techniques to definitely get a scholarship for my children.
