I'm Raimundo, 16, in my final year of high school. 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 computer science. I have a 3.7 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. Thanks for being kind about this.

  • Sending good thoughts. Study hard! My neighbor had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. God bless.

    • keep going, Raimundo. This could happen to any of us. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. Thinking of São Paulo

      • Take care, Raimundo. Study hard! Don't give up. Thinking of São Paulo

        • Hope it all works out, Raimundo. Hope this works out for you. I went through something like this 3 years ago and strangers helped me out. All the best.
