Hi everyone! My name is Mandy Zhao, and Iām a first-generation college student studying Psychology & Sociology with a minor in Public Health on the Pre-Law track. For the past two years, I have been supporting Bay Area students with college applications and extracurricular work, helping many get into all UCs and top privates with full rides and competitive scholarships such as Questbridge. Iām excited to continue being a support system for more students and provide guidance at times when attending top institutions comes with barriers.
