It's a few things! A mentor is typically someone who helps you improve your reviews, but they are also someone you can ask all of your site questions. To find out more click here. To apply for a mentor, go to 'account' at the top of your page, go down to 'mentor program' and check out the mentor list.

I was just going to suggest this. I should have known this lovely lady would already be giving the help! I you DS!

You would be an advanced user once you graduated anyway. Plus, students get more frequent review products than advanced. There's nothing extra or special that comes with being an Advanced Reviewer until you are writing useful reviews that are bumping your rank.

My browser froze as I was trying to answer this, but yes, BBWTT is correct. You can stay in the upgrade queue but you get the same benefit from completing a course with a mentor successfully as you do with being voted in.

Either way you choose to go, good luck! If you have any questions, please feel free to shoot me a message

Best of luck!

good luck spencer! i was Corabell's student and she graduated me not long ago so now im advanced user, i have reviewed 2 free assignment items but i frequently use my points to get items, and also do some video reviews if item doesnt have one done yet, to get $25 GC

huh, where does it say that you get 25 bucks for doing a video review on items that don't have any? can you post a link? if so I think I may start posting video reviews

There's this thread and also this thread.

In summary, all videos have to be approved by Carrie Ann. Something may be out for video review and EF does not want more than 1 Video Review and 1 Adult Review on each product. There's also the Video Review Program, but you're only eligible (per my understanding) once you've reached a 6.0 rank. You would basically get an additional review toy for each month to review specifically for the intention of making a video.

yep, u email Carrie Ann to ask if u can do one on a product u did a review on, and if it's available, she'll give u the OK and give u the EF intro u have to edit into the 1st part of video to be able to get credit for it. then once video is done right (could take a few times of u re doing it - sound, no background noise, be clear talking etc) then the person who approves it i think his name is Justin, he emails a $25 gift card code to be used on this website. and now the awesome thing about shipping is that if u get stuff over $25, its free standard shipping and u get double points, i hope it stays that way lol =]

Mentor Program is amaaaazing.
