Starbucks -- 28th and 3rd

I love it here. So I may only get 2 hours of free Wi-Fi (I'm thinking that's how it goes...so I must type this up super quickly), but the people here are all young people studying for some sort of post-graduate test.

The other day I was sitting next to a guy studying for some tax test while I was studying for the GRE. Across from us was a table of an MCAT study group.

At one point, one of them said, "OK forget it, I'll just get this type of question wrong on the test."

"You can't do that," one of the others said. "It's computer adaptive!"

The five of them laughed heartily.

I chuckled to myself firstly because I thought they were a bunch of geeks, and secondly because I understood the joke, too.
