on Perfect Score

The-Perfect-Score-Posters

Last night we watched “The Perfect Score”. It’s a film about 6 teenagers from diverse backgrounds – among them the school’s star basketball player – who conspire to break into a SAT testing center to steal the answers in hope of acing their exam and the school’s second in her class, yet extremely apprehensive about taking the exam but needs a high SAT score to get into Brown University. This movie shows the pressure that high school students have on standardized testing in general. Their grades may be good, but without a good score on this one test makes the difference in what college they can get into. For me they have better option than stealing, they could enroll themselves to sat prep courses online, classroom settings or hire tutors and buy SAT prep books. The movie reminds me of our neighbor. She’s the first honors in her class but she failed in NCEE (National College Entrance Examination) :exclaim:Thus, she’s not able to enroll the course that she ever wanted. I felt pity on her :nono: . In my case, we have the NSAT (National Secondary Aptitude Test) but I wonder why they don’t release the scores we got from that test and we thought that it will be included in our grades but it’s not :dazed: . I wonder how I score :question2: . I remembered that prior that test we reviewed every weekend :sad: . Oh, high school life :exclamation:.

Oh, what can I say about the movie? It’s a great movie! You have to love Roy (the stoner), he’s one of the best characters ever created! And this movie would have been crap if Scarlett Johansson wasn’t in the movie :bleh:.
