(NAPSI)-Getting into college is a source of stress for teenagers and parents as the competition increases each year. Fortunately, a few tips from two prominent experts in the field can help teens maximize their college options and move through the process with less stress.

In their helpful new book, Don't Worry, You'll Get In (Marlowe & Co., $12.95), Mimi Doe and Dr. Michele A. Hernandez offer 100 winning tips for getting into the school of your choice without falling apart or burning out.

Described as the first easy and accessible college admissions guide of its kind, the book is full of tips to navigate the process successfully and calmly. Doe and Hernandez include pointers on how to choose the school that's right for you, how to perform well on interviews and strategies for writing great essays.

Here are a few tips you can accomplish in high school:

• Get to know your teachers. Teacher recommendations count for a lot.

• Challenge yourself with tougher classes.

• Pursue learning outside the classroom.

• Understand your personal learning style. There's no one-size- fits-all approach to learning.

The book is available in local bookstores.
