This book is totally excellent! I enjoyed her writing style as well as her story. It really inspired me to prepare for college and the scholarship process. As a high school junior, I am glad my mom bought the book. It is easy to read and gets straight to the point. I HIGHLY recommend this book to every high school student.

I thought that this would have names and addresses to obtain scholarships but it only tells a student how to prepare to get a scholarship. It is geared for the senior in high school. It really doesn't benefit anyone who is already in college.

1.0 out of 5 stars Very disappointing, July 27, 2006

This review is from: The Scholarship Search: A Guide to Winning Free Money for College and More (Paperback)

This book has very little useful information. It is more along the lines of the handouts one would get at high school college night, than an actual book about getting scholarships. It is a waste of money to buy this book.
