TESTS

[My Little Needle]

by the end of this year I will have taken approximately 89,000 standardized tests

in march I took the sat
reading: 680, math: 720, writing: 730
I'm taking it again in june because I could've done better on reading (I got a 740 on a practice test)

tomorrow I'm taking took sat subject tests, french and us history. I got 760 and 770 respectively on practice tests so I'm not all that concerned about them.

in the next two weeks I have three ap tests. french on monday, us history on friday, english language the next wednesday after that. so much studying to do. I've gotten in the 4 range (out of 5) on all of them in practice, but I really wanna bump at least one of them up to a 5.

so yeah my life is basically defined by this bullshit right now.

discuss tests

[kevin]

just took my last final today

tests are lame

[brancely]

next week is finals week here.

i have two on monday (abstract algebra 2, history of science), one on wednesday (cryptography), and one on thursday (anaylsis 2).

boring post over, you can start reading the thread again.

sigh took two midterms yesterday
six more weeks of school... guhg. high school standardized tests seem like the biggest waste of time ever though.

[Slack Motherfucker]

got my marks back for this semester. I failed my first course ever, my worst semester yet. In one course the class average was 57%, what an asshole prof, that shit should be scaled to at least 70%. (my mark in that class was 69%). glad living in canada (and going to university here) I didn't have to take SATs.

[billi vanilli]

for some reason, my grade on the writing section of the SAT got lower every time i took it. practice test my sophomore year i got a 9/10, first time i really took it i got like a 690 or so, and the third time was like a 610. luckily.. no one looks at those. yet.

Ive got AP Psychology and Economics coming up in a couple weeks. I took the ACT last year (got a 32) as well as AP US History and AP Biology (4 and 5 respectively). After these last AP tests ill be done with testing for a while i think.

[kevin]

what? you're going to college right? you're not done with testing, you've got 4+ more years of it. enjoy.

[pearl]

yeah you can say bye to standardized testing but oh god these tests suck
unless they let you bring cheatsheets

[theo22]

what? you're going to college right? you're not done with testing, you've got 4+ more years of it. enjoy.
Yea, i just meant I don't have to take finals this year and i'll have a good 4 months until college testing.

[Jamie]

I prided myself on being a good standardized test-taker

[pearl]

by the way, that is a good score, mln. are you taking classes? i did and got a 2150... i think i could've done better but i really didn't feel like taking the sat anymore.

[My Little Needle]

yeah I did/am ... it's bullshit but yeah I could do better too

[Rekart]

Took a final on Thursday in Gov.

Monday: AP Gov
Tuesday: Calc test part 2
Wednesday: Physics final parts 1&2, world history test
Thursday: AP Lit, Calc test part 1
Monday: AP Physics
Thursday: AP World
Monday: Calc final, German final
5/20: Last day of school
5/22: AP German

I think I got a 2100 on the SAT without any classes, and a 32 on the ACT. 750 on the Lit subject test, 740 on the US History subject test. Got fives on both the AP English Language and AP US History tests last year. Any standardized test with a large multiple choice section, with the exception of maybe AP Physics, is one of my favorite school activities. I'm going to have a year of college done.

i have anthropology and finance midterms on monday and tuesday, respectively. the latter is going to be real hard. we've covered a ton of shit in just 5 weeks and apparently my teacher gives long, difficult tests. he said it'll take most of us the entire 2:15.

[Reverend 'Lassie' Lovejoy]

I'm taking SATs tuesday-friday next week.
Not the most fun thing in the world.

[Tino]

I don't have finals in English, Biology, Spanish 3 until June (had midterms in April) and since they are multiple choice I never have needed to put a ton of studying into them.

[Burnin']

finished midterms this week.

finals are still a month off..

[Brent]

i have finals in two weeks. this is the worst semester i've had in college so far, i'll be lucky if i have a bunch of Cs

i'm pretty decent at standardized tests naturally though.

[brody]

i have a ton of shit to get out of the way before finals, which i'm not really sweating at all.

[fritz]

my old hs principal prided the school's high sat scores and he was a douchebag so i just guessed on every answer and finished in less than 5 mins and they were like whoa you're a genius and i was like i know

[My Little Needle]

note to self: consume more caffeine

[kuumuus]

anthropology test was a breeze, took me 15 minutes. i was the first one done. when i finished i slammed my pencil down, stood up on my chair and shouted, "I WIN!" and everyone applauded.

now i have to study and write out a page of notes in microscopic print for finance midterm tomorrow. yay!

[kimpanties]

way to own anthro! i am proud.

also, i'm thinking about going back to school and getting my MBA. i have to take the GMAT. i have no clue what's on it. anybody here have a clue?

[America: Fuck Yea!]

anthropology: what a sad story of a shattered discipline.

[kimpanties]

hater-ade

[tim]

Yeah, I have clue since I looked into it once, but didn't ever take it. The wikipedia article is really good: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graduate_Management_Admission_Test
