Host Julie Lythcott-Haims welcomes

back Getting In experts Steve LeMenager and Parke Muth to answer more listener

questions. A college counselor in Boston asks

what online resources he should include in a presentation to 11th-graders. A

mom in Switzerland wonders how US Colleges will convert her son's International

Baccalaureate scores to an American-style GPA. A college counselor in

Pittsburgh is wary of parents who insist their social and political connections

could help their children gain admission. And a mom in California is curious

how students can self-advocate when their high school college counselors cannot

pick up the phone and call an admissions office. Steve LeMenager mentioned several

helpful online resources for students starting their search: Khan Academy Naviance Big
