Your Genius Mind: Why You Don't Need To Be A College Graduate But You Do Need To Think Like One

by K. Candis Best, Ph.D.

Overview

Don’t let the subtitle fool you. Your Genius Mind is a passionate and unapologetic appeal that serves as a clarion call for increasing the percentage of people in the U.S. and around the world, with a four-year degree. But in this frank, insightful and often humorous account, author K. Candis Best makes clear that a degree will be worthless to anyone who graduates without college level thinking skills. In this book readers will learn why everyone has a genius to share with the world; how a quality college education can help them to find it; and what anyone can do to grow their genius through higher education no matter what school they attend. This is a must-read for anyone who is about to start college for the first time, considering a return to college to complete a degree or needs to be convinced about the true value of a college education.
