Proposal
• The product will give a more concise set of options in creating the
perfect college/university match per individual; which will be based
upon big data (social media), major, money options, and post-grad
career retention. An additional proponent of an MRI, through a
neurological exam, determines the accuracy of a decision based
upon neurotransmitters that react at the receptor to a list of probing
questions. Giving the student an overall match that is better
personalized then previous surveys.!
