College prep and survival from a top Web homework-help entrepreneur.
Grade Level: 9-12


http://www.bjpinchbeck.net/

CONTENT

SITE DESIGN
The site is simple and user friendly, with a series of tabs across the top of the main page that identifies the main four categories of links. Internal pages include sub-categories at the top of the page.

 

REVIEW
Anyone interested in finding information about preparing for and attending college may want to begin their search at B.J. Pinchbeck’s College Companion. It is a directory of free Web sites that offers all kinds of information and resources for preparing for college from things middle and high school students should do to get ready to applying for the SAT to finding scholarships and financial aid and finding the right college or university. Included under academics is getting acclimated, study skills, writing skills, text books, careers, technology and students with disabilities. To keep up the energy for all that studying and activity there is even a section on food that includes easy recipes that can be cooked in the microwave or toaster oven and online sites for ordering out. To round out the site the social section includes taking care of yourself, living arrangements, interpersonal and organizational skills, college life, dating and relationships, health and safety, managing money, fraternities and sororities, and taxes.
