but lowly 26 reading!! booooo!</p>

<p>He knew that he had mis-paced that section, taking too long on one section so had to skim and guess on the last. I don’t know if he’ll take it again. He’s pretty psyched with the 33.</p>

<p>Junior, first time, no prep or study, I had a full set of exams the week before and I’d given up on doing well, considering. </p>

<p>English: 33
Reading: 31
Math: 24
Science: 20
Writing: Ugh, 6…I was under the impression from my friend (who got a 4, geez) that they were supposed to be as simple as possible. The comments say I should’ve taken a clear position.</p>

<p>Composite: 27. Good enough for me, I’m taking another in February and know what I need to study. That science was terrible, but I heard if you study, it rises dramatically. I could probably get a 34 or something if I tried. We’ll see. =]</p>

<p>No preparation, senior.</p>
