The bestselling author of Pledged returns with a groundbreaking look at the pressure to achieve faced by America's teens In Pledged, Alexandra Robbins followed four college girls to produce a riveting narrative that read like fiction. Now, in The Overachievers, Robbins uses the same captivating style to explore how our high-stakes educational culture has spiraled out of control. During the year of her ten-year reunion, Robbins goes back to her high school, where she follows heart-tuggingly likeable students including "AP" Frank, who grapples with horrifying parental pressure to succeed; Audrey, whose panicked perfectionism overshadows her life; Sam, who worries his years of overachieving will be wasted if he doesn't attend a name-brand college; Taylor, whose ambition threatens her popular girl status; and The Stealth Overachiever, a mystery junior who flies under the radar. Robbins tackles teen issues such as intense stress, the student and teacher cheating epidemic, sports rage, parental guilt, the black market for study drugs, and a college admissions process so cutthroat that students are driven to suicide and depression because of a B. With a compelling mix of fast-paced narrative and fascinating investigative journalism, The Overachievers aims both to calm the admissions frenzy and to expose its escalating dangers.Binding Type: Hardcover

Magsafe car mount for a Tesla screen that is easy to adjust and holds the phone very well
Style: MagSafe Car Phone Holder, Style: MagSafe Car Phone Holder
I installed this mount on my 2018 Tesla Model 3 main display and it was easy to install - just loosen the wheels on the top and side clamp, put it in place and then tighten the clamps back down. There is a ball mount on the back which tightens as well that allows you to position and angle the phone mount so you can tilt it up or down or towards the driver. You can adjust the phone on the mount to where you want it - although the bar that holds the phone will hit the clamps in two spots so there are a couple of positions that don't work due to the design, but overall you can more or less put the phone where you want and and then tilt it any which way to you.
The magnet connection is very firm but the phone also detaches relatively easily. The clamps so far are holding well on the screen. I really don't have a lot of complaints - except maybe that there's a couple of positions that don't work. It works well, installs quickly and easily and seems to hold well in use. I've had no problems so ar.

Mostly reliable to use
Style: MagSafe Car Phone Holder
It's nice to use in my car to separate out different needs like looking up a specific route while moving and the navigation is going somewhere. The magnet is pretty strong and haven't had any issues with that. However, if you dont put it in the corner of the screen to secure it at a right angle, the flat way to secure it in the middle of the top edge is not reliable at all. The weight of the phone and the angle of the mount makes it really easy to fall off the screen no matter how tight you secure it down. Fell at least a handful of times. Just put it at the corners and you'll be just fine.

Does not fit the Cybertruck. Will slip off due to angled backplate.
Style: MagSafe Car Phone Holder, Style: MagSafe Car Phone Holder
It does not fit the Cybertruck well. Due to the angled monitor back, it will slide off. Check the video of what I mean. It is not flat like the Model 3 or Ys.
The mount should work fine on the Model 3 and Model Y and Newer Model S and X, but not on the Cybertruck and older vertical screen Model S and X.
The Magsafe that I received must of been broken. It completely fell apart. Everytime I put on phone on it, the Magsafe will completely come off stuck to my phone.

Looks good, installs easily but the arm jitters on the road
Style: MagSafe Car Phone Holder, Style: MagSafe Car Phone Holder
Super easy and intuitive to install on my Tesla model 3. Once installed, I think it will probably hold position indefinitely. You can install it so that it is in a very convenient position. my right hand index finger was able to touch the screen of my phone while maintaining contact with the handle, so that should give you an idea. The reason I took 2 stars off is the way the goose neck jitters when driving. I think perhaps it is too thin. I drove on normal paved road, and the shakes were noticeable. It didn’t fall off at any point, but it made me nervous that it might. The magnet didn’t feel that strong either. A lot of people own phones larger and heavier than mine (iPhone 12 mini), so I’m reluctant to recommend.
