Summarize Chapters 4-7 and Give Personal Response

In chapter 4 George talks about how him, Sam and Rameck where meant to become friends. Him and Sam had been friends before Rameck and the immediately realized they enjoyed the same things. In this chapter the boys grade's began to slip, but eventually they began participating in school plays and organizations. Even though they would still goof off. Rameck almost got kicked out of school. Eventually they heard about a program that would pay for them to go to college. George was very excited about it and got Sam and Rameck interested so they made a deal. That they would apply for the college and make something out of themselves become doctor's.  In chapter 5 Rameck shares a experience that almost cost him the rest of his life, cause of the influence's of his bad friends. Rameck and his friends beat a crack head and stabbed him. Rameck had to do probation. In chapter 6 Sam shares a experience that almost changed his life also. Him and his friends tried to rob drug dealers, and got caught. In chapter 7 George talks about there application for college and graduating  high school. They all three were accepted to Seton Hall. Rameck was always accepted to Howard University , but later realized that he could not afford it . They all had interviews and ask lots of questions. George also talks about all the peer pressure that came from his friends, but some how in managed not to give in. I have really enjoy reading these chapters cause they realized that life was to short to and that anything could mess up there chance's of succeeding.
