@AmericanAir what is the email for customer service re issues with a flight?

...If you are applying to top-20 schools and you have mediocre grades [and a boring resume], you are not likely to overcome those with an amazing essay." Seems obvious, but it's something students often forget given so much focus on the essays!

[Adam Nguyen @HelloAdamio]

"You are not going to get into a top-30 school, definitely not a top-20, with a GPT-generated essay." That was my belief a few months ago in my @observer interview, and it's still my belief now. #collegeadmissions #AI #ivyleague

But I always advise students aiming for #ivyleague and other elite colleges, "Essays are important, but they are not as important as students and their parents think....

In my @FT interview, I explain how @IvyLink adapts its advising & strategies post-affirmative action for students of diff backgrounds. I also predict the impact the end of #affirmativeaction may have on other preferences like #athletes & #legacies.

How important are college rankings? My @TIME interview explores the recent controversies around the (in)famous U.S. News lists of top colleges. “The system is broken,” says Nguyen, who now advises families going through the college admissions process as a founder of Ivy Link.

Would you use #AI to write essays? ED/EA college apps are due soon. In this @thisisinsider piece, I discuss #chatgpt use in #collegeadmissions essays & if colleges can tell. "These essays are... what a very mediocre... student would produce," Nguyen said. https://t.co/BKL6m2ywld

[Adam Nguyen @HelloAdamio]

In light of the rise in hate and violence against Asian Americans, many of us have felt compelled to take action to make a positive impact in any way we could.
I joined other Asian American business leaders as a signatory to the following statement and collective $10M pledge

to combat the hate and violence against Asian Americans. It was published in today's WSJ print edition, and here's the link to the site we created with the text of the statement/pledge to give friends and allies the opportunity to join and support our efforts:
