OverSATurated

Is it just me, or does the entire SAT process suck? And by the way, why is okay to use the word suck and not its rhyme that starts with a ph? Their meanings seem awfully similar to me.

Anyway, I have a daughter in high school who is freaking out about the SATs. Why is my kid mad at me because I didn't force her to start studying for a test 6 months ago? Is it normal for people to take that test 4 times? I don't get it. At this point all it does is test your ability to take a really long test.

I was talking to the guy who runs the local SAT prep place and I asked how business was. He said he'd seen no dropoff at all. We agreed that since his business was dependent on the insanity of baby boomer parents that he'd probably be able to weather any kind of economic storm.
