Is the Work worth the Result?

In total, I would qualify for $2,500 at the most, which is a drop in the bucket at those schools

If u spend a total of 10 hours registering for the SAT, taking the test, filling out the NMF application, recycling another college app essay, then you will have earned 250 bucks per hour.

Maybe you have a part-time job that pays more than that per hour, or maybe your parents are rich and easily drop 2500 bucks on a bottle of wine. But to most other people 2500 bucks isn’t the chump change u portray it to be.

BTW, the $7.25 federal min wage minus FICA & Medicaid withholding nets $6.70/hr. At that rate, u wd have to work 373 hrs (2 months fulltime) to earn 2500 bucks.
