Read this excerpt from We Beat the Street. Thinking back to that presentation in the library makes me smile. What started out as three high school boys skipping class turned out to be the most significant event in our lives. If we had made it to the gym that day instead of the library, more than likely the streets would have swallowed us in the next few years. We never would have become doctors.

What effect does the Seton Hall presentation have on the three friends’ lives?

It puts them on the path to becoming doctors.
It makes them feel truly happy for the first time.
It helps them remember what is important in life.
It changes their feelings about high school.
