Critics Review
“An insightful guide for high achievers-and those aspiring to such status-from an authoritative source. Stefanie Weisman’s book about the secrets of academic success is all the more amazing, given the learning disabilities that she overcame to become the ultimate academic overachiever. I believe students can find happiness and achieve great things at any number of schools, and Weisman offers hard-fought wisdom about how to get there.” - Alec Klein, Northwestern University professor, best-selling author and award-winning journalist
“This is perhaps the best and most pragmatic guide to academic success I have read that is relevant to today’s students. One thing that sets this book apart is that it provides special information for students interested in science, technology, engineering and mathematics, aka STEM subjects.” - Educated Quest
“The author’s conversational tone and practical advice contribute to a relaxed style that makes the information seem easy to apply…a must-read for students in middle school and up, teachers, parents, and guidance counselors as 21st-century students learn to excel in the new educational landscape in which they find themselves.” - School Library Journal
“It’s loaded with strategies on how to get the most out of school in a healthy, well-rounded way, that will continue to serve your scholar well throughout their life…Weisman’s writing style is relaxed and often humorous as she conveys wisdom she’s gained in the course of garnering numerous academic accolades.” - Brooklyn Family
