Seventeen Magazine in corporation with TestRocker, a US-based online SAT prep company (testrocker.com), will host ‘The Road to College in The United States’, a seminar on various topics of further education in USA which is going to take place at Hotel Sofitel Bangkok Sukhumvit on Saturday 23, 2013, at 1 pm. onwards.
This special event will give you some ideas in comparing the college experiences of your friends who attend American schools with the experiences of those who attend schools in Thailand. For example; academic requirements each university needs i.e. GPA, SAT score and mandatory TOEFL, the campus scene, the fashion, the parties and much more. Besides, TestRocker will also provide suggestions for those who are not yet decided which field to study or which University offers the intended course you are wishing to study. The actual location of the college is important as well as giving emphasis to the type of high school you enjoyed. Did your high school offer a close teacher-student relationship? Was your high school more focused on self study. Do you want to be more than just another face in the crowd? If so, you might want to look at colleges known for having smaller classes. Or do you want to have that college experience which is more like being a part of a university town. Whatever your choices, TestRocker is going to take emphasis on the academic path you need to focus on to begin your search for the right college in US.
Furthermore, TestRocker will show you how to evaluate your choices on post graduation. Do you want to return to Thailand or stay on in the US? This was a question our founder here at TestRocker, Sonali Mathur, struggled with. Despite being born in India she decided to attend a university in the USA. “It was a hard decision to make, but I knew that I wanted to start my own life in the United States. Now I have friends from every corner of the globe and have even started my own company!” Before picking a school one should think about its reputation in both Thailand and the United States.
More importantly, this event is free of charge. For those who are interested in sharing experiences with TestRocker in ‘The Road to college in The United States’ can either apply for or ask any more queries at www.seventeen.testrocker.com
