If so, you should probably state that in their genre. If it's not literally their souls that are on the line, you may want to consider revising.

I think it sounds like a thrilling ride.<br /><br />Just a thought regarding the premise -- I don't think that it is anti-Asian bias in Ivy League colleges...it's just that Asian students don't have minority status since by comparison to other established minorities they are over represented in these schools when looking at US demographics.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10183360328367818422noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1940209088259004106.post-80877406913230431482012-10-28T13:34:25.001-04:002012-10-28T13:34:25.001-04:00I was really confused by the phrase "one ring...I was really confused by the phrase "one ring road removed" - I think you mean just outside the district for the best high school? After that, though, I like it, and I really like the premise of the story.

Timely and socially relevant, the parents who are willing to do anything including blackmail bit is a brilliant example of the "What If" game writers play. My only caveat is that I'm confused by the term "anti-Asian bias." Perhaps I've misunderstood, but in my experience, minorities, especially Asians, are among the coveted kids colleges want to attract. So what do you mean by anti-Asian?Helen Pynehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12316832865096419631noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1940209088259004106.post-15203848555881672422012-10-27T16:05:36.639-04:002012-10-27T16:05:36.639-04:00Very original!

If that's the case, perhaps the location of her parents' home is not as necessary for your logline since she will be competing against kids from all over the country for admission into Harvard. Also, why must we care about Mei's parents? What's at stake if Mei doesn't get into Harvard? Is it her parents' social status, pride, Mei's sanity?<br /><br />Best of luck!Blue Mermaidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00156361888182945992noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1940209088259004106.post-42936468729730736582012-10-27T13:01:28.428-04:002012-10-27T13:01:28.428-04:00This log line kind of confused me at first, especi...This log line kind of confused me at first, especially the phrase "insider tracks". You definitely don't want that to happen. However it sounds like an interesting story and a prevalent one at that.<br /><br />Good luck!Authoress Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14384597436791803105noreply@blogger.com
