I thought this was a great prep book for students that are getting ready to head off to college. It’s an easy to read book that is targeted at college-age students, and has a writing style that will appeal to them.

There are 18 chapters and each one is a rule for life, not just college, but each rule completely works for a successful college career.

I really liked that this book felt like a real guide that people can connect to and understand. The advice provided is down-to-earth, and honestly, it is helpful. It provides a perspective of college life and how that is the preparation for the rest of your life. Students that are preparing to move into a dorm or take classes while living at home will both find helpful guidance from this book!
