I'm about to cry :/ please help

Okay..

So I have my apps all ready for college.

Last factor: Subject tests. I'm applying for ED, so I have to submit the before getting my scores. This is the first time I'm taking the subject tests.

Although I got a 780 on a Spark Notes Math II test, it took me almost 2 hours. yeah..
I was going to take Physics, but got a 490 on the practice test.. so I decided to take a biology one and got a 510..

Btw, did i mention I hate my school for not teaching me jack ****?

I'm taking literature cold. I can't find a practice test. And it's late.

Does anyone have any advice for me? I'm really stressed and worried about tomorrow..

Yeah lit is a whole other level from CR on SAT I. I know of many people who have gotten 800 CR but can barely get 700 on lit

i never said that lit would be easy or anything, but it stands to reason that if you did well on the CR section, as in say 750+ or so, you should get an okay score on the lit - from what blackroses said, you'd probably get a better score than 510 or 490, which is what s/he's been getting on the other subject tests. I know what you mean, I got an 800 on my first SAT1 CR sitting, and 770 on the next... but the lit really isnt too bad.

update: yes, most of us got our scores back.
i got 750 in lit, which is okay, but a lot of people seem to have done really well:
but i didnt do much prep for lit, so if you did well in CR, take lit if youre in doubt.
you'll be fine, probably.

The "standardized" part of the test name acronym is a flat-out fallacy.
