Читать книгу SAT Math For Dummies with Online Practice - Mark Zegarelli - Страница 31

When Jay started studying with me, his goal was very straightforward. A gifted lacrosse player, he was already being recruited by a coach at a college where several of his former teammates were already going. They loved it, and he wanted to join them.

So his high school plan was simple: play hard on the lacrosse field, keep his grades up, and break 1,000 on the SAT.

Jay and I worked together for two or three months, and when he took the test for the first time, he got a 520 in English and a 510 in math. With a 1,030 composite SAT score to work with, the coach advocated for him, and Jay received an early acceptance letter a few weeks later.

As much as he enjoyed working with me on SAT math, he was done. As I write this, he’s the captain of his college lacrosse team.
