I received a copy of this book through Goodreads First Reads giveaways.As the mother of a teenage boy. I realized that the SATs were fast approaching and the last time I thought about them was when I took them. So much has changed.The book was a good story. Well written, many details, and flowed very well as well as entertaining. I could totally relate to so much - the anxiety throughout, the procrastination, which hopefully I can stem by the information I gathered from the book and last, but not least, the "love" of office supplies. Such a great resource. Although her experiences will probably differ from mine, I felt like it was a good starting point and a way to minimize the first time experiences that occur, both with test prep and the test taking itself.Thank you for all the advice! The only downfall was that it took longer than expected, because I was taking so many notes for future reference. Here's an analogy (though, sadly, the SAT no longer has analogies): Tiger mom writes book about child-rearing: Tiger mom's daughter gets into Harvard::Debbie Stier writes book about SAT: Debbie Stier's son gets into _______This book may be an elaborate prank to get young Ethan into college, but there is a lot of interesting info about the SAT and different prep methods. Eh.
What do You think about Perfect Score Project (2014)?
Interesting. It did NOT make me want to take the SAT or ACT again, though, that's for sure.
