Before I ever knew what I wanted to do with my life I decided where I wanted to go to college. Once I was accepted into "Large State University", I picked a major based on a hobby, and not based on what I was hoping to do for a career.
All this being said, I wish this book existed before I went to college (20 years ago)! I certainly would have done a better job in picking a major that aligned with my career.
I could not recommend this book enough. It is an easy read and a helpful guide.

The Unbranded Student is the ultimate guide to finding the right college, from beginning to end. In all honesty, they cover everything you need to know in order to make the best out of the efforts you put into higher education. This book is an unbiased informational guide about finding your strengths and weaknesses and using those to effectively find the right college that is tailored for you.
This is not a promotion of the most expensive schools. Actually, it’s quite the opposite. This book promotes everything that is in the best interest of each individual, and it encourages each student to write their own life story based on their entire life experiences, not just what college they went to. The informative writing persuades its readers to use college and higher education as an efficient tool or as a means to an end, not an end itself. As you will see, there is a lot more to choosing a school than just deciding which one is the coolest. This book will help you select the right one.
Opinion:
Although my plans do not include college, I still found some very useful information on how to use your skills and build new ones in the workforce. The authors did a superb job of finding a balance in all their subjects, as they themselves are qualified professionals. They cited very reliable and accurate information and provided plenty of resources to aid a student in their search for knowledge. I would definitely suggest this book for high school students, as it is a must-read for those planning to achieve any sort of higher education. As this is an informative read, I would not suggest it to those who are looking for light entertainment. But for parents, high school students, and teachers, this is the perfect read.

The Unbranded Student is a college guide which will help you choose a college best suited for you.
It won't lecture you about which college is best or to take your time but will help you to know if a degree matters or not.
The book is written from both authors perspective and both jave shared their experiences. I really liked how they even included experiences of people around them.
The book includes statistical diagrams which will also help you to see where you are and from you should start.
Would highly recommend if you've completed your high school and don't know what to do next.
