My ACT prep teacher told me that only 5% of admitted students in the UC schools are from out of state. Is this true? Can 95% of admitted students really be residents of Cali?

^ Relax, have a good amount of sleep tonight, touch up on some grammar/math/vocab (but only for an hour or so), eat a good breakfast, etc. There's not much more you can do now.

Just remember when you take the PSAT tomorrow that you can't be as worse off as me ... I came home from wrestling practice yesterday with a 103 fever and throwing up in the middle of the night ... ugh. Worst possible time to get sick. Not to mention that I was planning on doing some last minute cramming considering that I've opened my blue book maybe twice since I got it several months ago. =/

But then again, my state is in the bottom quartile for National Merit, plus my score last year when I went in cold was only about 4 points below the cutoff, so I'll see.

I brought my tissue box to the Oct. 6th SAT because I had been suffering from a nasty cold all week.

I think I got close to perfect on math (skipped one question) but I failed section 3. Writing was easier Than expected.

No National Merit. But I'm okay with this.
