Back up? The colloquial term “backing something up” implies that there is some sort of competition or, at the very least, you have something to prove.

That is the difference between you and I.
You see the SAT as something to prove, whereas I see it as something I need to take in order to get into my college of choice. I have nothing to prove to you, nor do I feel the need to prove anything to an internet poster.

And, it’s evident that you clearly missed the point of mypost. Do you bypass parenthesis when you read?
Giving me a BS response and then padding it with something nice doesn’t fly - the intent of your post was clear. That’s why you subconsciously put it in the top half of your post. Calm down for a second and realize that not everyone has the same intent as you. Your intent in life may be to get a high SAT score. That’s great and all, but that’s about at the bottom of my list. Leave me out of your 2400-obsession.

Again, I appreciate all of you posters who gave me serious responses. It’s one thing to get high scores yet still see the good in anothers 1800s… it’s another thing to get a high score and mock those “lesser” than you on a measly, unimportant test.
