Impress top colleges

Recommendations from your counselor and teacher are key. They can give you a boost that sets you above other applicants. You can increase the power of your recommendations with proof of your interpersonal skills (SQ). Unlike grades or aptitude test scores, your counselor has the option of including only favorable SQ report scores.

When you ask a teacher to send a college recommendation letter, also ask that teacher to hold a Social Quotient survey during a class period. Over half the class will get a positive result. The teacher will be encouraged to include the favorable SQ results with recommendation letters.

What is Social Quotient or SQ ? Like IQ, SQ is a number that measures an important human skill. IQ is a measure of intelligence, while SQ measures how well a person gets along with others. Both are calculated from tests. For brainpower colleges use SAT or ACT tests. Sociability can now be measured by a classroom quiz. College admissions officers like that SQ numbers can be easily compared, as with SAT scores. (Note the comment from Harvard above.)
