US University Consultation

What’s Included?

This 60-minute meeting with one of our US admissions consultants provides expert insight into the admissions process. Typically scheduled at the start of the year-long cycle before the application deadline, private consultations are designed to assess your potential as an A-List applicant, provide feedback on certain areas to work on, and address all concerns you may have. 

Here’s what your private consultation will entail:

For the first half hour or so, we’ll get started with a Mini Mock Test. This is simply a small test for you and us to get a sense of what the real test is like, and what suits you. Your raw score for this mini mock test is simply to get an idea of your strengths and areas to improve.

Then, we’ll invite your parents into our conversation, so everyone can take part in a Q&A session. Students can address their concerns and ask any questions about the admission process. If needed, we’ll also discuss further support.

Finally, our team will send comprehensive written feedback within two days. Your feedback includes relevant Course Reports that detail our recommendations for the next steps you should take.

Testimonials

“My tutor Charlotte McKechnie was excellent. She made me feel confident and able in every session, and all the work we did was targeted on specific areas of improvement (I was studying for the USA’s SAT). In the end, I obtained a score that I was delighted with, so the sessions really paid off. Thank you to A-List and Charlotte”
