Description:
Introduction: "There’s a student who sits patiently at their desk. A pencil is meticulously placed to the left hand side of their SAT workbook. You can hear their labored breath, shaking like a bird taking flight, struggling to compose itself. If they could articulate the millions of thoughts, emotions, and feelings coursing through their mind, what would they look like? The student looks around the room for comfort, looking for even a hint about what the writing prompts will contain, scrounging for the lost memories of “incorporating evidence”, what does a thesis statement look like? There’s so many kinds, which ones will the exam reviewers like? Which one will they grade as “the best”? A world of unknowns framed by the time limit they will have to write under. . . . "
