✦ SCHOLAR DIRECTIVE // 2026 EDITION

BUILT BY SCHOLARS FOR ASPIRING ENGINEERS

A2O makes gatekept advice from real admissions officers and countless First Class students accessible, for the price of 3 to 4 restaurant meals. We cut through the noise of expensive superficial agencies that fail to deliver by putting integrity and student feedback first.

✦ THE MISSION ✦

Creating an application Blueprint

We founded A2O studios from our college dorms with 3 missions in mind: Prepare a fantastic Cambridge Application quickly, Emphasize reading and practice, as well as delivering value with integrity.

We know exactly what your final years before university feel like: intense classes, rigorous exams, Olympiads, multiple university deadlines under constant pressure. When time is of the essence, a comprehensive weekend guide on Cambridge Application is the best.

With video lectures, online courses and short-form content on the rise, students are losing the attention span needed for university studies. We chose to write a book to combat this pandemic, start reading more before it’s too late. Moreover, perfection is mostly practice. That’s why a read then write blueprint structure works best for fast learning.

After speaking to many concerned parents, we are frustrated with the amount of expensive and ineffective education services online. Preparing for university since 7th grade is utter nonsense.

Imagine paying a notable percentage of your school fees only to be rejected. We want to provide the highest quality advice, from admissions officers, Cambridge First Class students and ourselves at a price that hopefully doesn’t strain your wallet.
