JBTP Platinum: your beginning-to-end College Counseling program.
"John Baylor Test Prep helped me best express my strengths in a way that set me apart from all other applicants. From creating the perfect college application list to guiding my essays and making the final decision, JBTP helped me reach my perfect destination - Colgate University. JBTP also helped my older sister, who is now a Junior at Duke University. I can't wait to attend Colgate in the fall!"
Rebecca Johnson, Lincoln East, Class of 2011

John Baylor Test Prep (JBTP) Platinum ensures that you leverage that higher score into the Best College for You at the Lowest Cost: it’s your beginning-to-end College Counseling program.
- You’ll meet initially with John Baylor, in-person or via Skype, for your initial 90-minute Session, when we put together your desired college criteria, an initial list of colleges, a calendar for future diagnostic test taking and visiting colleges, a game plan for maximizing future financial aid (if applicable), a blue print for marketing your extra-curricular skill, and more.
- You’ll receive the JBTP Platinum Guide, our 132-page bible for getting into the Best College at the Lowest Cost.
- You’ll then be in regular touch with your JBTP Platinum Advisor to update your plan, regularly discussing your progress on the Big Three: the primary criteria considered by colleges for admission and financial aid.
- In the summer prior to senior year, application essay writing will begin in earnest. Your JBTP Platinum Advisor will help you choose the best topics for you and ensure that your writing includes the three key attributes that distinguish great application essays.
- Your Platinum Advisor will help you sort through your many options in the spring of senior year.
- We’ll help you weigh the benefits and drawbacks of transferring, should that become an option you’d like to consider.
Our goal is to ensure that you’ll have maximum options at multiple price points. We want you to graduate from the perfect college for you at minimal expense. We’ll provide you a full summary of all our discussions following each meeting. Over nearly fifteen years our JBTP Platinum Scholars have graduated from selective colleges such as Yale, Pomona, Northwestern, Grinnell, Swarthmore, Middlebury, Dartmouth, Brown, Wesleyan, NYU, Babson, BU, and Wisconsin.
