I'm Anh, 17, in Year 12. My parents work long hours and didn't go to university, so there's no one at home who can help me understand applications, deadlines or financial aid. I'd like to study biomedical science. I have a 3.9 average, I volunteer at my church youth group and I have a draft of my personal statement. What I need is someone to read my essays, tell me honestly what's weak, and explain how scholarships work. I'm looking for an hour a week until August. We can do it by video from anywhere. My mother will be at home during every call, and the school counselor knows about this request. Thanks for reading. It took me a long time to ask. Thank you for reading my story.

    Wishing you the best, Anh. Good luck with the exams, you've got this. Sent it to 5 people at work.

    • Sending good thoughts, Anh. Hope you get there. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. Love from Rawalpindi.

      • Thinking of you and your family. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. My colleague had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Love from Quezon City!

        • Wishing you peace, Anh. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Thinking of Hồ Chí Minh City.

          • Study hard! My neighbor in Stellenbosch donated after I showed her your page. Take care.

            • Thinking of you and your family, Anh. This could happen to any of us. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected.

              • You're not alone, Anh. Gave what I could, wish it was more. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like.
