“I have been in education for over 20 years, and YouScience is the best program for objective data on students’ strengths. Other programs use subjective opinions. There is no other critical time in a student's life when objective data is more crucial than when assisting students to build their futures.”

Beth Johnston, career development specialist, Allegan Area Educational Service Agency, Michigan

 

“YouScience helps students move from aptitudes directly into a career search. That’s one of the most helpful things, just being able to identify the language to use.”

—Dr. Christie Palladino, Teacher, Biomedical Science Program, Aiken County Career and Technology Center, South Carolina

 

“Working as a college counselor with high school students for nearly 20 years, and having tried multiple career assessments. I’ve found the YouScience tool to be an incredibly effective method of revealing a person’s natural strengths and guiding them towards industries and jobs. I have become a YouScience evangelist and can’t speak highly enough to my colleagues about it."

Chris Blackwell, Director of College Counseling, Cistercian Preparatory School, Irving, Texas

 

“As a former guidance counselor turned CTE Director, I love the way that YouScience assesses aptitude. Any other aptitude test that I have ever worked with measures what the student "thinks" they are good at. You don't know what you don't know, so students don't have any idea that they might be good at something if they don't know much about it!"

— Cami McClenny, CTE director, Enterprise City Schools, Alabama
