You guys are really taking this a bit too seriously. Just having fun with you. Lighten up.
My point is simple: there are two sides to a story.
Our mission statement is really simple.
--To get as many Taiwanese students into elite schools.
--To bridge the information gap between the US and Tw.
--To give an insider's view on studying abroad and your career.
--To help students make informed decisions.
"You can bring the horse to water, but you can't make it drink."
But, you are right, my writing is a reflection of our philosophy (and the quality of essays we turn out).
We are fiercely competitive. We do view the world as Envision students vs. non-Envision students. After you sign up, we see it as us (student + Envision) vs. them (the school). We are firecely loyal to our students and will do ANYTHING to get them in. We are passionate about what we do.
We are not for everybody and we don't claim to be. Some former students become friends. Some don't. Some like us, some don't. That's fine.
We are focused on one thing when we work with you: the bottom line. In the context of school applications, it's one word: admissions.
