The Triangle of Talent™
ThinkSTEP's innovative training model elevates our students to the next level of academic preparedness
Grades alone aren't enough anymore.
In today’s competitive environment, top grades and test scores no longer guarantee admission to a top university. Beyond academics, schools seek passionate and motivated leaders who have a purpose to make a difference in the world.
-
Academics
- Boost your GPA by dramatically improving your grades in English, History, and other social science courses.
-
Leadership
- Develop project management skills to proactively create your own extracurricular opportunities (instead of passively joining a club).
-
Personal Story
- Create admissions essays that unify your extracurricular and academic pursuits in order to express your personal story and goals.

Student Testimonial
ThinkSTEP's Self-Discovery process helped me understand myself so I could make the most of my high school experience. Combining my passions for women's rights and health made the difference for my admission to Cornell for biochemistry.
