PERSONAL JOURNEY |
Loren attended an ordinary public high school in California without a track record of sending students to top universities. He was aiming to attend university in California; the Ivy League seemed out of reach, if he thought of it at all. But when he was 16, he heard Dr. Marty Nemko giving college advice on the radio, and signed up to work with him. Dr. Nemko helped Loren to see how high he could aim, and then to reach those aims. Loren got into college counselling to help other students in the same way.
