SuziQ, probably. I have plenty of SAT advice. Tell her that she just needs to get in the zone. Sleep well the night before. And to plan before she writes. Make sure she hits all pieces of the prompt and to have some generic anecdotes taht will work as proof.
What should I do, then? Send her a gift? Sacrifice? … Unholy fruit basket?

When I got up this morning, it was dark.
Dude. I figured "OK, I'm going to bed at a decent hour, and I'm on east coast time, this should be a snap to get up early and get back in the employee groove!" But I woke up at 6:30AM and it was STILL DARK, so I went back to sleep.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
Tell her that she just needs to get in the zone. Sleep well the night before.
In my experience, this has always been more important to me than the actual studying.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I have gotten no calls or emails from my boss today. That's very odd, especially given that my counterpart (her favorite) is also out of the office today. Not that I'm complaining!

e-Doctor? Think Netflix for medicine. Brilliant idea or insane?

Okay, teaching vo-tech classes is the best-kept secret in teaching. This rocks! They do stuff, and I wander around and help. That's the thing I'm good at!

I don't know if it's a good idea or not, but that guy has a billiant PR machine.

e-Doc is not a good idea for me, even if he were local because I have health insurance. But if I didn't, I might consider it. Maybe.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame
Ok, I need some hivemind help.
I'm about to go all mama-bear on K-Bug's behalf and I know I shouldn't. But I'm not sure what to suggest to her.
She applied for a job a few weeks ago. Went through two rounds of interviews and they said they would call her. She didn't get a call.
She called a couple of days after "the day to expect the call" and was told a manager would call her back. No call.
She went by the store and asked. "You didn't get a call? We are surprised. You will get a call tomorrow."
That was Tuesday. No call.
Job wise, I'd assume no job. But I want to knock some heads saying - look, if you are telling her no, then TELL HER NO. If you want to hire her, then give an honest answer. Has the hiring manager been sick - call and tell her that things are delayed. Whatever. But this keeping her hanging sucks. BLARGGGGGG.
