2leashes. Here is what you said.


Daughter is a straight A student in honors, accelerated and AP classes.

She is self directed and motivated.

Her AP English teacher has given her a tremendous amount of summer work to compete which you know she will finish.

She is completeing an on line health class through BYU this summer.

She has begun reading the Odyssey.

Your daughters good friends are socializing more this summer.

Your daughters good friend got a higher SAT score than she did.

Your daughter passed up a number of social events during her junior year to stay home and study.

You want your daughter to read more to increase her CR score.

You plan on some college visits this summer.

2leashes. She is doing fine. Really. She needs a break before she gets thrown back into her senior year. She really does. I get tense just reading what she has to do for english class. The teacher should realize these kids need time this summer to think about college choices. I'm glad I'm not your daughter. Let her have a breather.

The easiest and fastest way to increase the cr score is to use flash cards for the vocab. that is on the test. Leave them in the car.

Good luck. I don't mean to sound harsh but I feel bad for this kid.

I also agree with Marians take on her average SAT score and view of herself. I think this shows she has to work very hard for the grades she has. Good for her. She will do great in college.
