at least i'll get points for spelling my name right. that's all i'm really counting on right now. i mean i plan on taking it three other times. wait. what if i don't spell my name right? would it be cheating to have a piece of paper with your name on it?

Last I heard the name thing was a myth. Don't worry, it's really not as bad as you think it's going to be. I thought I was going to take it a ton of times, but it really wasn't worth it, since I made high enough to get into the college I wanted. My college only required like a 900 total or something on the math and verbal, and I made a 1200 on that. Don't freak.

You're seriously freaking yourself out right now. Don't, it's seriously not as bad as you think it's going to be. Deep breaths, deeeeep breaths. You'll be fine, you were in freaking AP classes. I couldn't even manage to get into those.

AP was a joke though. I had an entire year of classes to prepare for my AP exams...this is just...evil. the worst that could happen with AP is that i don't get the college credits, which might not even transfer anyways. but if i bomb the sat...i don't get into college. i go to community college which means im stuck with my dad for even longer.
okay i'm going to try to calm down. innnn and outtttt

They make the GMAT to get into graduate school out to be worse. If you're not there EARLY, they'll send you home and you forfeit the $250 it takes to register. I called ten minutes late and told them I was lost. An hour later when I got there, they welcomed me and sent me in.
I didn't sleep and I died of sugar failure halfway through my SAT and still got an 1800. You can do this. Pretend Santa's coming and if you don't sleep you don't get your present. Which at this point is a Festival. //.O

your one eye got really wide there^ right the festival. i have to sleep so i can take the SAT and spend the rest of the day at the festival. sleep. i need to sleep. ok. goodnight. for real this time. i'm unplugging the computer so i won't be able to come back. if i don't come back ever it's probably because i've had a heart attack and died. but i have to come back. for the festival.

It's so not that bad, and if you're not happy with your score you can take it again. You've been unwittingly preparing for this your whole life, just about everything you learn leads up to the SAT. If you passed your EOGs/EOCs you'll be fine.
End of grade and end of course tests, if other schools didn't use the same thing....

Awww, I feel so bad for you Verity! I know how it feels since I took mine in January. It's not as bad as it sounds and if you bomb in one section you can do it again and just focus on the section you messed up in. On my first SAT I got 1750 but had like a 490 in math. I got in reading/ writing 600 and 660 respectively. I retook the test, basically guessed and just randomly filled in bubbles for the reading/writing and got 220 and 360 respectively while I got a 610 in math. So the uni's only looked at my highest per section. So if you don't get grades as high as you want just retake the test and focus on the section you didn't do well on.
Ok I now must go get ready for graduation get the times all ready and set so I can come for the festival which means I'm not going to my grad after party.... BECAUSE MAGIKAL IS MY AFTER PARTY WOOOOO!!!!
