I'm Manon, 18, in Form 6. 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 top-of-class average, I volunteer at the local library 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 November. 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.

Rooting for you. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. We're a small family in San Antonio but we're thinking of you
Rooting for you, Manon. Good luck with the exams, you've got this. Put this on a community board in Mandurah this morning. Thinking of Bordeaux.
Good luck, Manon. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Love from Augsburg.
Wishing you the best, Manon. Good luck with the exams, you've got this. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Greetings from Likoni.
reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Please keep us posted. Blessings!
