Synopsis
The frenzy of college admissions and the high pressure that parents, particularly Indian parents, put on their children to succeed, fuel this humorous chick-lit novel from a Harvard sophomore. Opal Mehta's parents have micromanaged her entire life from childhood so that she would be the perfect applicant to Harvard, using charts to ensure that she's taken the requisite advanced placement classes and has just the right extracurricular activities. But then her interviewer says that in order to fit into the community, a Harvard candidate should have a social life, too, and suggests that Opal should get one before applying. When Opal delivers the dreadful news to her parents, the Mehtas apply the same focus on transforming Opal into a popular, fun-loving girl.
