How has ISM benefitted Rachel Sherbert?

"ISM set me up for both college and the real world, more than any other class in high school. ISM brought me exposure to new opportunities professionally and personally. Between the connections I made in ISM, along with the opportunities to grow and find myself, the course helped me tremendously."

What was a challenge they faced and overcame?

"In ISM, I faced the challenges of becoming more outgoing in both a professional and personal setting. ISM provided a comfortable place to practice and overcome those fears in order to set myself up more successfully in real-world situations down the road."

Advice

"My biggest piece of advice would be to be yourself and pursue something that you are truly interested in. Additionally, do not be afraid of changing things, whether it is topics, details in your presentations or display boards, or more, it is always important to take as much constructive criticism as you are given in order to make yourself the best."
