In this informative and captivating piece, Chris Waddy explores the impact his SAT scores will have on the college application process. In giving a short personal description, we are able to gain insight into the type of person and student Chris is. The narration plays a large role in the appeal of this piece aimed mostly at students near graduation or those interested in the application process. The interviews are very informative and do a great job exploring both sides of this controversial issue. Chris creatively weaves humor into his piece and captures the audience's attention with his somewhat sarcastic tone. Background noises and sound affects are used effectively along with a catchy introduction. Overall, this is a great piece for high school students as well as parents and others involved with the application and testing process.
