so i was at my friends house today... and he really wanted to check his act score early but he was having a hard time convincing his mom to let him do it.... so his mom made him a deal that if his score didn't go up he had to pay her fifty bucks.  so he checked it and it went down... ouch.   talk about adding insult to injury.  see the problem here is this kid has the ability to do well at college i know he does and he wants to go to a decent college but his acts aren't great and he may very well just get screwed.... it really sucks for him.
