Stupid and Torture

[sivic02]

I actually remember my high school junior english teacher telling us about a study (she didnt have any specific sources or anything) it said that students who took the test after a night out drinking did better on the SAT than those who didnt. Or you could do what I did, go out drinking, dont stop drinking until about 2 hours before the test, get a ride to the test and take it smashed.

Its harder than you think. Have you ever heard of lean management or the toyota production system? Yes, I applied both of those very relevantly in a 5 paragraph essay but I only got either a 4 or a 5, I can't really remember.

isnt that all you can get??? thats good for an AP exam. whats the scoring for the SAT essay?

I was too good to take SAT's, so I didn't.



Probably a good thing considering there wasn't anywhere in NZ where you could take them...

Got a 1310 on the old one, didnt really do anything to prepare other then go to bed early and eat a nice breakfast. Took it a 2nd time and fell asleep during it, got a 1260 or 1280, dont remember.

SAT's and ACT's are all a crock of shit, IMO. I preferred the ACT's though.

Universities are sloooowly starting to not require those stupid tests for acceptance now.

The last time I took the SAT was in 8th grade, and even back then I got a 1080. Took the ACT junior year and got a 29. ACT is much, much easier. I hadn't heard that they re-worked the SAT scoring and added an essay to it.
