PSAT was extremely easy. The time limit killed me, however. Next year is when it really counts, so I'm not entirely bummed.

the PSAT was easier than i thought it would be. However, the math section(the first one) troubled me a bit

Eh, I think I did alright, could`ve done better, but it didn`t help that the kid behind me kept blowing his nose and it was a bit distracting. I feel like I over thought some of the questions, but who knows?

I took the PSAT today! Not nearly as bad as I thought it would be.
What I think I got...
40s (I'm being generous) in Math
60s in Reading
Upper 50s/60s for Writing
We'll see. I'd be "happy" with a 170+. I was reminded today that the PSAT in 10th doesn't really matter and that no test can fully and fairly evaluate our intellect. That being said, I'm going to try to not be bummed when I get my results back in two months.
In other news, I made a 100 on my AP Literary Terms test!

I think I did pretty well, but I probably missed at least a couple in each section..
For sure at least -1 in Math
Probably -1-3 in CR
Maybe -2 in Writing, but I felt pretty good about it.
I was shooting for 210 or more. I got 202 last year, which was simply because my 77 in CR somewhat nullified my abysmal scores in Math and Writing.

I think I got mid 190s. I think that maybe if I get extremely lucky i got a 200. CR was much easier than it had been in the practice booklet. Math was easier too. I had no issues with the first section, but I had to guess on like 3 of the free response questions in the second section. However I usually do really good in writing but it seemed harder today.

In all honesty, I really have no idea how I did. It could be anywhere from 150-210 for all I know. Or lower or higher. Probably not higher. Oh well. Only a few months until December...

I feel like I'm the only person who thought this year's PSAT was harder than last year's.
-0-1 M -- went too fast on the second section, checked, and found four stupid errors... EEK. But I typically do pretty well on the math section, so fingers crossed
-4 CR -- not particularly sure, but the free will passages made me want to bang my head against the desk, so that's about three questions I'm biting my nails about
-4 W -- I absolutely know I got one question incorrect, and there may be more
Not sure if I can achieve a 210 or higher this year from what I can see from my guesstimations, but I often tend to think too lowly of myself.

Unless you go to my school where freshmen and sophomores wait till February to see their scores. Hopefully I'll be able to sneak in with the juniors like last year and get mine in December.

@goodnoodle...aw, man!
@ispy...this is my first time taking it, so....
Yeah, on the wrong section, I screwed up my answer sheet luckily for only 4, and I was able to fix it, but I only had 5 minutes left, so I`m afraid I might have rushed on the last few. I got through everything, but skipped some on every section except writing, which for the most part, was extremely easy.

Anyone take the PLAN? Is the ACT even close to how easy the PLAN is?
