Slaying the SAT Dragon

My friend, college classmate, and fellow member of the a cappella group Fair Game (I am now largely emeritus, since they are in DC and I am in Texas) features prominently in this story on NPR. Ned runs Prep Matters, a test prep company that does incredible business among the anxiety-ridden student populace of the Washington area. He is ambivalent about the test in so many ways and he is deeply committed to his students. he has written a book, Conquering the SAT that helps students defeat anxiety and develop strategies that work. If you know anyone preparing to take that noxious test anytime soon, Ned's book would make a great gift.
