SAMPLE
註釋
In the fall of 1999,
New York Times
education reporter Jacques Steinberg was given an unprecedented opportunity to observe the admissions process at prestigious Wesleyan University. Over the course of nearly a year, Steinberg accompanied admissions officer Ralph Figueroa on a tour to assess and recruit the most promising students in the country.
The Gatekeepers
follows a diverse group of prospective students as they compete for places in the nation's most elite colleges. The first book to reveal the college admission process in such behind-the-scenes detail,
The Gatekeepers
will be required reading for every parent of a high school-age child and for every student facing the arduous and anxious task of applying to college.
"[
The Gatekeepers
] provides the deep insight that is missing from the myriad how-to books on admissions that try to identify the formula for getting into the best colleges...I really didn't want the book to end." —
The New York Times
