I love that Betterwise lessons are super short and to the point. Learning about the real world early makes me more confident in the life I want to design for myself.

I love how the app fits so much useful information into such short videos. That’s really the way I learn best. And the takeaway questions after each video help me remember the key points.

Betterwise removes a lot of the mystery around so many topics we need to learn to function well as adults. Also having access to mentors who explain their careers is especially useful for me ahead of college.
