Here's the scenario. You're 13 years old and smart, but your parents can't afford a private school. You didn't make the cut for Stuyvesant High (NYC elite public high school). Your local public high school is no good, like most of them.

You're a virgin, you have never had a girlfriend, the bullies call you a faggot.

What do you do?
