THROWBACK: ANXIETY AND SOCIOECONOMIC STATUS

[upbeat music] Welcome, everyone.

I'm Amy Seely, president of Seely Test Pros, helping students to succeed in all kinds of tests from eighth grade to grad school in Cleveland, Ohio.

And I'm Mike Bergin, president of Chariot Learning, which helps high schoolers with tests, school, and life, based out of Rochester, New York.

Between the two of us today, we have over 50 years of experience at the highest levels of the test preparation and supplemental education industries.

We both love to talk and learn about the latest issues in education, testing, and college admissions.

So let's get down to Tests and the Rest.

The fascinating topic we want to explore today is anxiety and socioeconomic status.

But first, let's meet our special guest, Anthony Villani.

Dr. Anthony Villani is a practicing psychiatrist, former school board member, parent of two teens, and college applicant interviewer.

He's also a competitive math coach.

I thought I'd just throw that in there.

[laughs]

Thanks a lot, Mike.

Thanks a lot, Amy.

It's great to be here.

Well, thank you.
