Living the American Dream can be a blessing and a curse, according to Jeremy, a high school senior from Westminster, California. A proud first generation American, Jeremy's parents emigrated from Vietnam to create a better life in the United States. Highly aware of their sacrifice, Jeremy feels it is his duty to work hard. His 4.60 GPA and a full course load of all Advanced Placement classes testify to his academic prowess, but Jeremy's drive continues to motivate him outside the classroom. An athlete, orator and member of the Academic Decathlon Team - where he medaled six times - Jeremy believes that his life must be full of meaning in order to do justice to what his parents have done for him.

Jeremy strikes me as vanilla.

I haven't seen anything really great out of the kid, as opposed to almost all the others (except maybe Gerald) who have done a lot. He's just kinda boring.

I really hope he gets a spot in the final showdown and wins it all :( For the past 3? tasks he has always been considered to be in the final showdown. I'll be really disappointed if he doesn't get the final spot :(

For this task he didn't deserve the final spot. Yeah that's right, I said DESERVE!

I thought the whole debate was quite robotic, for both sides, and he may have done well in his statement, but he just didn't seem to even want to try, and so Amari had to tell him exactly what to say. In a debate, it doesn't matter what your personal views are. You have to argue the other side.

I agree and disagree. I want to know what the hell debate has to do with whether or not your worthy of a scholarship? I know they wanted the remaining 6 to really show that they wanted it, but public speaking is a nightmare for most teens whether they are intelligent or not.

As far as my opinion of Jeremy, I'm not sure he's mature enough to handle himself at college. He'll spend most of his first year clinging to his RA hoping to be "cool" by proxy. B)
Those who can't laugh at themselves, leave the job to others.

Live your life in such a way that when your feet hit the floor in the morning,
Satan shudders & says... 'Oh, crap...she's awake!!’
