Chapter 3 My Goal

I cherish the opportunity to go to a private high school now. Duqi now spends most of his spare time in the library. He usually helps some students make up lessons, write papers, etc., so as to earn some pocket money. It is all cash transactions and the money is paid off. This has also allowed Duqi to save a considerable amount of money.

Of course, Duqi did not live a monk-like life. American girls have always developed early, and many of them are already familiar with each other.

With some tricks of flirting with girls, Duqi was able to get a few girls with good looks and figures through short contact to applause a few times. However, Duqi didn't have much time to date them or something, so he ended up maintaining an occasional relationship with a few girls.

Of course, Duqi also thinks that this state is pretty good. Not only do you need to read more books at school, but Duqi also needs to practice martial arts in his spare time, and also find ways to earn some pocket money. He really doesn't have time to have a relationship with these rich ladies.

It costs hundreds of dollars to have a meal with them at least. Even if the AA system in the United States is more popular, it is impossible to not treat a meal without treating a meal. At present, Duqi cannot afford the high expenses, so why do you have no girlfriend now? It is purely because you are poor.

Now Duqi helps people make up for their lessons, complete homework, classroom papers, etc., and can get rewards ranging from ten to one hundred dollars. Last year, Duqi used the money he earned in the past two years to take a driver's license.

The United States is known as a country on the wheel. Because many communities are far apart, most families, whether poor or rich, own a car. Here, driving to buy groceries is just a common occurrence, so most people already have a driver's license at the age of sixteen.

When driving a driver's license that you had before the age of 18, you need someone to guide you. However, most people will not take this rule seriously. As long as there is no car accident or something, there will be no police coming to cause trouble.

Duche's home has an old Ford car, and a small truck for transporting vegetables in the Chinese restaurant. However, Duche usually takes a school bus to and from school. As a famous private high school, Loyola's school bus service is still very good. You can take Duche directly to the community where you are located, and you can get home in less than ten minutes' walk.

In fact, even if the students in the school are at least middle-class or above, except for a few more ostentatious students who drive their home sports cars to school, most of the students in the school still choose to take the school bus to and from school.

Ten minutes before the school bus left, Duqi got on the bus and began to consider the next college entrance examination. In the United States, both the ACT and SAT exams are called "college entrance examinations". They are not only one of the admission requirements for American universities, but also one of the main basis for universities to issue scholarships and the testing standards for students' comprehensive abilities.

The ACT exam is called the American university entrance exam. North America holds a total of six sessions a year. It is more like a subject exam. It emphasizes the candidates' mastery of course knowledge, and also takes into account the test of candidates' independent thinking and judgment ability.

The Chinese name of SAT is the Academic Ability Assessment Test. It is sponsored by the American University Committee and is affiliated with the American University Council, a non-profit institution, and published by the American University Council, and is perfected.

In my last life, colleges and universities often claimed that they treated these two different exams equally, but Ivy League schools prefer ACT test scores, which has become an open secret in the eyes of students and teachers.

However, in this era, SAT is established earlier and is the mainstream of the college entrance examination. Duqi is also preparing to take the SAT exam in May. It is now April, and Duqi has not had much time left.

Duqi is still confident enough about the SAT test. In recent times, Duqi scored a total of 2,400 points. Duqi scored a high score of more than 2,300 each time, and the lowest was 2,341 points. Moreover, the SAT test is conducted eight times a year. Compared with the annual college entrance examination in China, Duqi is not worried about what will happen if he fails the exam due to accidental failure, and his mental stress is less.

"Qi, what are you thinking? I heard that you have signed up for the SAT exam. It seems that you are unwilling to be my junior and are ready to be my classmate!"

Duqi turned his head and saw a young man of seventeen or eighteen years old named Adam Pritzker, who was 1.9 meters tall, five or six centimeters taller than Duqi, and his size was even bigger than Duqi.

Speaking of which, Adam is the captain of the American football team that Duches had just entered high school and was sowed by some people that he came to trouble Duches. It was a highly confrontational sport like American football. He could not afford to play without a good figure.

Many Americans generally have a personality that just do it, especially in high school, who are young and in their teens. They were young and energetic when they were young and energetic. When they first made trouble in public, Duqi taught him a lesson in front of many classmates, and he beaten up so hard that his face was swollen. Naturally, he wanted to get back the scene.

Later, Adam found another opportunity and made a fight with Duqi in private. The final result was that although he was five or six centimeters taller than Duqi, he was crushed by Duqi in both strength and flexibility and agility. In addition, Duqi also learned some simple fighting skills because of New York. As a result, Adam was knocked down by Duqi several times during this fight.

Later, maybe they didn't know each other without fighting, and the two of them fought three or four times, and the two began to have some conversations and contacts. Duqi also found that Adam was a straightforward guy. By chance, the two gradually became intimate. After hearing his question, Duqi asked, "I heard that you signed up, where are you planning to go to college?"

"If nothing unexpected happens, of course it's Harvard's business school." Adam said: "My dad is a Harvard graduate. He has some connections there. Why don't you come to Harvard too? I'll ask my dad to help you get a letter of recommendation."

If there were no reborn gold fingers, Duqi might have chosen to agree. After all, Adam's father has a net worth of 300 million US dollars. Such a net worth can be said to be a super rich man in the current United States. It has not yet entered the 1980s, and there are not many billionaires in the world, and there are only one or two hundred people at all.

Of course, this is not calculated based on family wealth, otherwise this number would be more. Adam's father inherited nearly 200 million US dollars in wealth that year, and he lost money and made money in business for more than ten years. His assets were originally tossed to 400 million US dollars, but due to the economic downturn in the past few years, he lost a few dollars and then fell to more than 300 million US dollars. Even so, he is already considered a wealthy person in the United States. Such losses will not change the conditions of Adam's family.

Adam's academic performance is not as good as Duchy, but it is also very good. His billionaire son, like him, has received a perfect education since he was a child. Before he entered the school, he will have the best personal teacher to give advice. It is no problem to study anything.

Shaking his head, Duqi said: "No, I have decided to go to Stanford, focusing on economics, and studying another psychology. President Lauren said that as long as my SAT test score is above 2,300 points, I will help me write a letter of recommendation and can also help me get a full scholarship."
