I really liked this fic. The format of a test and then giving examples with each of the answers was such a great way to examine their relationship. And there were some great moments - Brittany liking Rachel's kitten sweater, Santana reading to Brittany, and buying Becky a soda. I liked that Santana likes Glee because it isn't destructive, but sees Mr Schue's way of teaching as a weakness. I liked that she views Sue as kind of a means to an end (with Quinn I got the impression that she legitimately liked and respected Sue, in with the fear). This was a really great fic to read because there was such a range of emotions within it, and you gave Santana quite a detailed past in very few words that really explains who she is and why she is that person.

Thank you so much! I found it interesting to write, because it is almost like a five times/five things fic, which allows for the snippets of character exploration that I like, but the Q&A aspect of it added the twist that each section really had to focus on one idea or theme.

I'm glad you liked Santana's attitude towards Sue as well--I find writing Sue's relationship with anyone fascinating, especially the way in which each of her relationships with her Cheerios tends to evidence a different type of fail.

I dare say that if the SATs actually used examples such as you have given us here even the dullards at the schools I tutor at might focus long enough to actually answer the questions properly.

Great and cleverly done fic. Thank you for sharing.

Heh. I know I certainly would have paid more attention had the example reading passages been more interesting.
It's like all the reading on the exam must be incredibly torturous or else it doesn't count as a rite of passage experience.

Amazing story I enjoyed this immensely. Very original concept, the characterizations were spot on and it was just pure awesomeness :D. Great as a character study and a fic.
