Like any good Hollywood movie, I’m back with a sequel: Part II of Going Back to Marlborough. But it’s hard to be your own producer when you don’t have a backer. And, even thought I am happy to tell you that my parents are both doing well, neither is pushing me the way the parents of the other Marlborough students are pushing them. My mom encourages me to eat well and get exercise, but she’s not overly concerned with my SAT scores. Wah, wah, wah!
So I am pushing myself. Because I still want to know: is Marlborough, and high school, and all the demands that kids have these days, really all that different from when we were in school? No, I’m not attending full-time, but I’m weighting my schedule down with two kids (2nd and 4th grade), and I figure with them plus Marlborough, I can create all the stress I want for my little experiment!
OK, I’m taking the SAT November 6. At Marlborough. I begin my SAT prep class this Saturday. I’m using Revolution Prep because they seem to have a newish approach to test prep. Plus I am taking it with my friend's daughter. I’ll keep you posted.
People with pushy parents are lucky when it comes to the SAT. Ugh. If anyone wants to push me, feel free.
