Final overview!
In my opinion, I feel that the most successful magazine is Student ID: Under new management I think this because it involves so much more content and information on TV and entertainment other than just college and careers. It is also more enjoyable to read as it is packed full of useful information and advice that you could use now, or later on in life, and i feel that this advice is vital for every student. It also has a more vibrant and colorful front cover which tells you exactly what is in the issue... I think that this is important as it makes people interested and want to buy it.
