$99 for an Access-Level Membership to Unigo.com ($199 Value)

The access-level membership unlocks video tutorials, lessons, and tips on how to stand out from the pack when applying to college. Past and present admissions officers, as well as other admissions experts, divulge information on such topics as in-person interviews, essays, and letters of recommendation. In addition to offering step-by-step guides to the Common Application and FAFSA, the site also tracks every deadline and reminds members as dates approach.

Unigo

To get the best picture of what college campuses are like across the country, Unigo did something different than its peers: it took the reins from admissions officers and gave them to current students who candidly review their personal experiences on campus and, in some cases, videotape them. What resulted is a comprehensive college guide that is “vivid in a way no guidebook can match,” according to the New York Times. As a resource the Wall Street Journal hails as "built for the age of YouTube and Facebook," Unigo makes clear its student and professional staff knows how to help teens find the school they’re looking for—its top-10 lists include Hipster Colleges and Fifty Shades of Cray, a compilation of party schools.

To these free guides, Unigo has added a paid membership program that unlocks a wealth of admissions information to ease high schoolers and their families through a process that can be strenuous and overwhelming. Unigo counts current and former admissions officers from the likes of MIT, Duke, UPenn, and UC Berkeley as contributors to video tutorials, interactive lessons, and other online tips. They cover everything from how to nail an in-person interview or essay to the most acceptable way to deliver a letter of recommendation—wrapped around a gold bar.

The Groupon Guide to: Impromptu Holiday Games

With holiday season in full swing, there's no shortage of dinner parties to attend. If your host doesn't own any board games, save the evening by suggesting a game that can be played without gaming equipment:

Bang, Bang, Hear, Hear: Have one person grab a fork, spoon, and knife. After everyone else closes their eyes, the person holding the utensils will start banging one of the three against the dinner table. The first person to correctly guess what the banger is banging wins and gets to leave the game.

Noise Town: Break off into groups of two. Each pair builds a unique city by creating a soundscape using the sounds that come out of their mouths. The team that builds the loudest town gets the grand prize—getting to wait outside until the other teams stop.

My Country, Your Country: One person starts the game by approaching another person and saying "My country." The person has to respond, as quickly as possible, "Your country?" The first person then must say "My country" again, this time faster than the second person said "Your country?" This keeps going until everyone feels compelled to simultaneously shout "The holidays: are these not the finest times of our years?" Then everyone gets to leave.

Should December be called Game-cember?
