'Ello, everyone. I just finished reading a book called "Hacking Harvard" and it's about these four kids who take the worst underachiever they can find and attempt to get him into Harvard, the college deemed the best of the best. Max Kim, the son of a Harvard obsessive father, wants anything BUT go to Harvard. Eric Roth is the voice of reason, the goody-two-shoes technical advisor. Schwarz, the philosopher and the probability machine, is the inside man (who's actually on the inside of Harvard...a sixteen year old kid genius.) Clay Porter is the underachiever, the former bully of Eric Roth.
And of course, there's always a little romance twisted in.
It was a very good book. They get Clay to ace the SAT's, (with a little extra help) and eventually get into Harvard (which he definitely didn't deserve.)
Comments? I'll find out the author -- I haven't got the book in front of me at the moment.
