TESTIMONIAL

"Smarter by 1 degree is the only place I would recommend! I finished my bachelors degree in psychology in October. They helped me so much! They were available, never made me feel bad for asking questions, made the whole process easy, and were always kind. I loved working with them! I never thought it would be easy and fun, but Smarter by 1 Degree proved me wrong. They made understanding what I needed to get done easy. Everything was broken down in a way that never made me feel overwhelmed. You take it one step at a time and before you know it, you are done. I loved working with them and cannot recommend them enough!"
