    Chapter two was so long it gave me a headache. Anywaise, Kate can’t stop thinking about her acceptance letter, she gets pretty hyped up just thinking about it and that’s all she thinks about or worries about. It’s good that Kate has a boyfriend; at least she has someone to soothe her stress away, I never imagined Kate having a boyfriend because she’s a reverends daughter and you’ll hardly hear that the reverends daughter has a boyfriend. I feel sorry for Kate because she can never get rest the girl needs rest. I think Kate should have applied to more colleges instead of just applying to one particular. Poor Kate, her watch got stolen and that’s her mom watch.

    Chapter two is about Kate’s family. Kate’s mother died when she was fourth grades. She had pneumonia. But the thing is Kate was not really sad because her mother was like her aunt. She is like distant aunt. Her mother just care about her when Kate’s birthday she just gives her cards. Kate sometimes she miss her mother. I am happy that I have real family. My family makes me laugh and I am happy to make them laugh. I feel weird that Kate’s mother is dead. Even before her life…. I think she needs love.

    kate is really thinking so much about the letter she got about accepting her into the college she applied to.i really dont think she should worry at all, i mean she got accepted.yes, i think she should have applied to more colleges, but what if this is the college she wants to attend, we dont know that yet.kate has a boyfriend and its a good and bad thing. in my point of view, i think its a good thing because she has someone to talk to, someone to turn to, but i think its odd because of her dads position in the church, but im happy for her..kate is a really hardworking child and her dad is lucky kate turned out to be that way.he didnt have to take care of them alone, he had Kate.

    This chapter was really long, dull, and put me to sleep. I tried reading it, but frequently put the book down because it was too boring! As I read the book Kate seems to be worried so much about MIT, if she were really as smart as she thinks, she would’ve applied for multiple colleges to not worry. But instead yeah, she anticipates for the best or worst that could come back. I think it’s ironic how she’s the reverends daughter and she has a boyfriend. I would expect her to be more holy and concerned about her virginity, because of her dad. But boy was I totally wrong, and also her confronting Teri. A big buff girl I never imagined she would stand up to her. I think Teri is just looking for a friend, but ashamed to say.

    This chapter was about her brief childhoold story and her worrisome about the acceptance from the university she applied. In details, she is raised by only father who is a pastor and unfortunately, her mother died because of a sudden illness. Kate takes care of her brother who has isthma through his whole life.

    Most of the times, she talks about MIT, the university she desparately wants to be got in. She talks about SAT...GPA...College...which always in my mind...that bring a lot of pressure..on me. And lastly, she mentioned about Teri who is a big and scary girl. I think she will make some trouble with Kate..for sure.

    Chapter two was a long chapter.. starting of chapter two, Kate was stressed out because of her acceptance from MIT. She didn’t apply any other colleagues except MIT. Seems like Kate is really a hard working person, I mean she does a lot of works that she doesn’t have enough time to get a sleep. She was a top student, NHS member, and a runner.. I hope we gets a acceptance letter from MIT, because it will be a disaster if she doesn’t get in. if hard working person like can’t get in to MIT… I wonder what kind of human being goes there..

    Kate seems to be really excited about getting accepted into MIT. It shows throughout the chapter. She has a boyfriend, and a bully[her name starts with a T]...This chapter bore me to sleep. So she talked about her childhood memories.. Her only parent right now[her father] is a reverend.

    Kate is a really good hardworking student. Im thinking MIT is like going to Harvard of Princeton. Best of luck to her!

    Oh my gosh… This chapter was so long. It actually bored me to sleep. Anyways… It shows that Kate is really excited about getting into MIT. She just can’t wait for the acceptance letter. Kate is a really hardworking and smart student, and MIT sounds like a pretty high college. I think that she’ll get in, but if she doesn’t then I hope she can find another college to go to. Basically, this chapter was just about Kate’s childhood memories, and her getting into MIT.

    Chapter 2 is so long in this book, and the first, I felt so sad when Kate fourth grade, her mother was pass the way, from that time, she went to the independence, and take care of her family, also, I felt glad she was so smart, and she was a independence girl, and also, I proud of her, because she to be strong, and never give up. Whatever, she is a specially girl, a girl who can live without the mother, and make anything, I know, because everybody will change by a conditions. Alao, this chapter is talk about the university she applied.

    I think that Kate Malone has all the right not to believe in God but she will need him sooner or later. I feel sorry for Kate; she has to take care of her father and her younger brother. To me, Kate is kind of weird. She doesn’t sleep and all she could think about is MIT. She runs early in the morning and she named her car “Bert”. I think that Kate should be scared because her acceptance letter isn’t in yet and everyone else got theirs’ ever since. Kate has a boyfriend and they don’t fight at all. Her relationship is going great but not many couple can stay like that forever, they have to fight some time.
