One of our students just sued the ACT. And won. This story is crazy. This awesome kid came to Leland after scoring a 19 on his ACT. He had high hopes for college and knew his 19 wouldn't cut it. So we found him an amazing ACT tutor and they got to work. After months of working together he went in to take the test again and scored... a 34 🤯 Not believing this was possible, the ACT cancelled his score. A 15 point jump, in their view, had to be fraud of some form. Honestly, I don't blame them. That's an insane jump. So their family took the ACT to court, and because the Leland tutor had detailed logs of them working together AND ample evidence of other massive score increases in other clients, they won. The score was reinstated recently, just in time for college applications. So awesome. Countless amazing stories like this happening with Leland customers and experts every week. If you have a kid applying to college or taking the ACT, reach out. Happy to shoot you the profile of this incredible tutor or find someone to help you navigate this process.

Hate to tell you, but if you're not grinding, putting in the hours, you're NGMI. It’s 1:47 pm on a Monday, office is full. No one is even thinking about leaving. Team has been here since 9 am and might be here for a few more hours. Only took an hour for lunch. 🫢

For legal reasons, this is a joke. I’m not even employed right now.

If a PM schedules a meeting with you, it's a great sign of respect in their culture.

Listening to my family talk about AI: "Have you used ChatGTP yet?" "OpenAI just dropped a new MLM" "I can't believe how good ChatGPA is" "ChartGDTP is going to change the world" "I'm so impressed with the growth of ChadGDP" "I'm buying Microsoft stock because they invested in ChatgABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ"

You either die a hero or live long enough to post on LinkedIn.
I hate to admit it but LinkedIn does actually work really well
