About Me

Think My Money-Back 1530+ SAT & Top 25 Admission Guarantee Sounds Preposterous?

 

I've spent my life doing impossible things that people don't believe I've done even after I've done them.

​

THE WAY I LOOK 

The photo above was taken in 2023 when I turned 64.  The fact that I look 20 years younger than I am is the result of me systematizing a health and beauty regimen for myself to create an "impossible" outcome just as I have systematized a path to extraordinary success in multiple arenas throughout my life.

 

STARTED PHOTO BUSINESS AT AGE 11 (1970)

I wanted a camera and dark room.  Mom said earn it.  So I used a trick I saw on 60 Minutes to win a national coloring contest with the prize of a set of World Book Encyclopedias.  Sold the set we already had and used the proceeds to buy the camera and dark room.  Started my first photography business by cold calling strangers from the phone book until I found parents willing to let me photograph their kids for free.    "Just pay for the photos you like, " I said.  I did all this when I was 11 years old. (No, I never had to work at McDonalds.)

 

GRADUATED VALEDICTORIAN OF CLASS AHEAD OF ME (1976)

I graduated high school in three years as the valedictorian of the class ahead of me, just for revenge, because a kid a year older was telling everybody he was smarter than me.

 

EARNED $150/HOUR AS A STREET MUSICIAN (1985)

After graduating Dartmouth, I spent over three years as a NYC street musician, after I figured out how to make $150 per hour doing it (and that was back in 1985, when $150 was actually worth $150.)

 

PUBLISHED SONGWRITER IN NEW YORK & NASHVILLE (1987)

I am a published songwriter in both Nashville & NYC after a psychic I met in the Bronx got the former Nashville Police Chief to call in a favor and set up a meeting for me with the legendary record producer, Jimmy Bowen.

 

SELF-MADE MILLIONAIRE (1998)

I turned a $500 investment into The Medical Massage Group in NYC, the largest pregnancy massage center in the USA, with revenue over $3,000,000 per year.

 

INTERNET MULTIMILLIONAIRE (2005)

When digital marketing was in its infancy, I took advantage of a Google loophole to become an internet multimillionaire in less than a year (as told in the NYT Bestseller, Get Rich Click.)

​

COLLEGE WIZARD SKYPE LESSONS (2010)

One of the first people to offer ever SAT tutoring on Skype, I also am the only one to ever offer unlimited 1-on-1 SAT tutoring for a package price.  What my competition still doesn't understand is that I can do this because I actually have created a perfect SAT beating system:  SAT Codebreaker 54.  When I met the founder of the Princeton Review, he said, "Well, Harvey, I guess I could say our systems are cousins of one another. But to be honest, I would be your very stupid cousin."

 

BECAME HEADLINING COMIC IN MATTER OF MONTHS (2019)

When I realized how entertaining people find the stories of my life, I went from doing comedy open mics to globetrotting COMEDY HEADLINER in a matter of months. I built the only english language comedy club in Costa Rica in my backyard where I perform my standup comedy to raise money for charity (I even hired the Dartmouth Aires to open for me), and I've already been accepted to beat the Guinness World Record For Longest Standup Comedy Routine in 2024.

 

BESTSELLING AUTHOR (2022)

As author of the international bestseller, Creating Joy, I tell how I managed to use an Albert Ellis technique to instantly regain joy in my own life shortly after the death of my only child.

 

Why am I telling you all this?

 

Well, if you’ve been somewhat entertained so far, at least I haven’t wasted your time. 

 

But the real reason I’m telling you all this is to say I understand why you may find it hard to believe that I can guarantee a 1530+ SAT score, Top 25 School Admission and a Full Ride Merit Scholarship OR YOUR MONEY BACK.

 

Based on my track record, I hope you can see these are much easier accomplishments than most of the other things I’ve done in my life.

 

Notice I didn't mention my 10-year tenure as Dartmouth District Enrollment Director, because it's not worth a lot, as I see it.

 

Oh, yeah, I know every admission coach boasts about being "former admission coach" or "former Dean Of Admissions."

 

Doesn't impress me.

 

The way I see it, you wouldn't hire a movie critic to direct your movie, right?  You'd hire the person who knows how to DIRECT MOVIES!!!
 

The College Wizard® is my passion project, and since the death of my only daughter, I pledge all my creativity, marketing genius and personal time to guarantee students get the best possible chance to make their college dreams come true.

 

I guide students to launch multiple adult level businesses and charities that are lightyears beyond what anybody else in the college admission industry could conceive of, then use my bestselling author skills to help them craft application essays that read like movies and blow everybody else's drivel away.

 

That’s how I guarantee admission.  

 

If my creativity isn't enough to get you in, then that’s on me and I’ll give you your money back.
