Pranith Surapaneni
Perfect ACT? Sure. But that’s just the start. Pranith is the kind of person who aces a test, then turns around and teaches everyone else how to do it too. After scoring a perfect 36 on the ACT, he didn’t just move on—he started tutoring friends, and that turned into mentoring 20+ students with an average 4-point score increase. But test prep isn’t the only thing he’s good at. He’s a DJ. A French horn player. A varsity tennis athlete. A children’s book author. A biotech researcher. Oh—and he helped raise over $150K for charity through massive Bollywood dance events. He also built a nonprofit that brings live music to memory care homes, and his books on autoimmune disorders are now in hospitals and libraries around the country. What sets Pranith apart isn’t just how much he does—it’s how much he gives. He finds cool ways to combine creativity, community, and leadership, and he’s all about turning personal wins into something bigger for others. He’s also really honest about what it takes to manage time, stay focused, and figure out what’s actually worth doing. Message Pranith if you want advice on anything from studying for the ACT to organizing big events, starting a nonprofit, juggling lots of interests, or just figuring out how to make your college app actually reflects who you are. He’s been there—and he’s the real deal.
