"As Acceptance opens, "AP Harry" (so named for the unprecedented number of AP courses he's taken) and his mother take a detour from his first choice, Harvard, to visit Yates University, a small liberal arts school that's enjoying a surge in popularity thanks to a statistical error that landed it on U.S. News & World Report's list of top colleges. There, on Yates's dilapidated grounds, Harry runs into two of his classmates from Verona High, an elite public school in the suburbs of Washington, D.C. Maya Kaluantharana is a gifted athlete whose mediocre SAT scores so alarm her family that they declare her learning disabled. Taylor Rockefeller, Harry's brooding neighbor, just wants a good look at the dormitory bathrooms. Together, the three students (and their parents) will weather the storms of senior year."--BOOK JACKET.
