Do Less, Live More, Get Accepted What if getting into your reach
schools didn’t require four years of excessive A.P. classes,
overwhelming activity schedules, and constant stress? In How to Be
a High School Superstar, Cal Newport explores the world of relaxed
superstars—students who scored spots at the nation’s top colleges
by leading uncluttered, low stress, and authentic lives. Drawing from
extensive interviews and cutting-edge science, Newport explains the
surprising truths behind these superstars’ mixture of happiness and
admissions success, including: · Why doing less is
the foundation for becoming more impressive. · Why
demonstrating passion is meaningless, but being interesting is
crucial. · Why accomplishments that are hard to explain
are better than accomplishments that are hard to do. These insights
are accompanied by step-by-step instructions to help any student adopt
the relaxed superstar lifestyle—proving that getting into college
doesn’t have to be a chore to survive, but instead can be the reward
for living a genuinely interesting life.
